The History of Thortons

Thortons Inc. is founded in 1971 by Mr. James Thorthon. Prior to this business, the founder has experienced retailing gasoline in the year 1952. This effort led to the very rapid growth of a chain of gas stations called “Payless.”   The first “Thorntons” location opened in 1971 in Clarksville, Indiana.   In the 1980s, Thorntons turned from kiosk locations to convenience stores and which had grew into over 100 locations.

Matt Thornton, son of James Thornton, added his touch to the industry by introducing a larger facility with an expanded fast-food program, a corner-grocery concept, sparkling restrooms, and the best employees in 2002. In 2007, Thorntons introduced its newest concept store with the fastest service, cleanest restrooms, freshest food, and superior merchandising.

To vouch for the company’s excellence, The Forbe’s Magazine recognizes Thorntons as the 250th largest privately-held company in United States with over 1.7 billion dollars in annual sales.
