December 7, 2012
Susser Holdings (SUSS) is a third generation family-led business that owns and operates more than 550 Stripes convenience stores, primarily located in Texas, which sell gas, goods and fresh food under the Laredo Texas brand. In the quarter, Susser split off its wholesale fuel distribution arm and converted it to an MLP called Susser Petroleum Partners LP (SPP).
