Who Owns One Stop Shops

The ownership of businesses called One Stop Shops varies greatly depending on the specific chain or region in question. There are several companies known as “One Stop” or “One Stop Shop” that operate in different countries and retail sectors.

United Kingdom: The well-known convenience store chain One Stop in the UK is owned by Tesco, one of the world’s largest retailers. One Stop has operated as a subsidiary of Tesco since 2003, though it functions as a separate business entity with over 950 stores and approximately 10,600 employees^[5]. The company is registered as One Stop Stores Limited in the UK^[3]. There are also One Stop franchise stores supported by the brand^[6].

United States: Ownership of “One Stop” branded convenience stores varies by region:

• In West Virginia, the One Stop convenience store chain was acquired by CrossAmerica Partners LP in 2015. CrossAmerica is a wholesale distributor of motor fuels and is a subsidiary of CST Brands Inc.^[1][7]

For other stores known as “one stop shops” (generic term), ownership will depend on the specific business and location as there are many independent grocery, hardware, and service businesses using this descriptive term. If you are looking for ownership of a particular “One Stop Shop,” more details such as the location or industry are needed.
