Book excerpt: Wawa, a family business with a history in dairy and manufacturing, expanded into retail in 1964, offering a friendly, personal alternative to supermarkets. Since then, the convenience store grew into a well-known company that competes against the biggest industry players in the world in three areas -- fuel, convenience, and food -- all while maintaining their personal approach and small business mentality. Now, almost 50 years later, Wawa has opened its first store in Florida and has begun to play on the national field. How did it happen? What are the reasons for their success? Why have they been able to go up against the big guys with nothing more than homegrown talent? With a mixture of personal history and business advice, Howard Stoeckel discusses the last 50 years of Wawa's growth, development, and expansion. It's the story of how a small company with a funny name made a big difference, and all it took was a little goose sense.

Book excerpt: Wawa has more than two hundred years of history in American business. Founded in 1803 and incorporated in 1865, Wawa has roots in the manufacture of cast-iron water pipes and decorative lampposts. Using the resources and surplus water power from the iron business, the family opened a cotton mill and began producing cotton piece goods, including Red Star diapers. The first Wawa milk plant opened in 1902; by the late 1950s, the Wawa Dairy had expanded its home delivery business to include over one hundred forty-five routes. The first Wawa Food Market opened on April 16, 1964. Today, the company is familiar to many as a chain of five hundred forty convenience stores in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia that offers a wide selection of fresh foods, coffee, and gasoline. Wawa contains vintage images documenting the evolution of the company as it adapted to changing economic and social conditions. From the early days of iron manufacture to the opening of the first store in Folsom, Pennsylvania, Wawa brings to life the many facets of one of America's top privately owned companies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WARNING: The Believer General has determined that reading this book could be harmful to your faith. After exhaustive investigation, it has been determined that Wonderful Wawa is neither a being of this earth nor a god, but a secret agent of the LIA: the Lunatic Intelligence Agency, for you humans out there. The LIA is an elite arm of the government of planet Lunacy, a world that orbits a very small sun situated behind Antares and hidden from Earthlings. Wonderful Wawa arrived on Earth in a womb-shaped spaceship and implanted into a human female, camouflaging himself as a fellow human being. His only mission: infiltrate as many earthly institutions as possible to spread the seeds of the Lunatic philosophy. As Earthling Buehl Sheadt follows Wawa's every move in this provocative fantasy, thus begins the strangest part of Sheadt's life. He dutifully chronicles how Wawa reaches his wise and witty conclusions through many years of dedicated soul-searching. With his scribe in tow, Wawa continues to expound his theories-befriending some and offending many-while always maintaining the unique position of a "casually interested onlooker" in life. Enjoy this irreverent collection of tongue-in-cheek philosophical musings from an itinerant wise man, on everything from circumcision to Communism, and a multitude of subjects in between.
