The owners of Concord General Store never intended to open up a gas station. However, when the situation presented itself, they quickly set about creating a spot that reminded them of stores they had stopped at along the highway during their childhood. Concord General Store lives by a motto, we’re not your typical gas station. Instead, we strive to be a haven off the highway; a place where people can stop to relax and recuperate from their drive.

Since our establishment, CGS has developed and evolved into what we are today, and we’re still evolving! We strive to offer unique product offerings and services, alongside the more typical ones of a gas station-convenience store.

In 2005, Concord General Store opened up the Concord Zoo, located behind the store. Here, customers can find cows, miniature horses, alpacas, ducks, chickens, and many more different types of animals to befriend. Concord Zoo was opened with the intention of providing an outlet for children and adults to reconnect with nature and animals. The best part? It’s a free zoo!

So, stop on by, for a minute or an hour, to grab a coffee, a sandwich, or to befriend a goat! We look forward to seeing you.
