Huck's Food & Fuel
Huck's Food & Fuel, formerly known as Huck's Now, is a chain of convenience stores headquartered in Carmi, Illinois operating as a subsidiary of Martin & Bayley, Inc. As of August 2018, there are over 120 Huck's stores located across Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri and Tennessee.
Huck's was founded in 1960, beginning its existence as Big John's Supermarket, in Southern Illinois then as a supermarket chain, before becoming a chain of convenience stores in 1974, opening the first Huck's location in Grayville, Illinois. It has been an employee-owned corporation since 2001, employing over 1500 people, primarily in rural areas.
Huck's was later popularized by a Twitch streamer known as Vargskelethor, or Joel. He found a Huck's Gas Station during a live stream where he played Geoguessr, a game where you try to find where you are randomly placed in the world in a Google Maps street view. This part of the stream was most well known for showing Huck's fountain drink deal, the Bigg Swigg.
