Fuelvend Express Opens For Business


Fuelvend Express held a grand opening and ribbon cutting Thursday afternoon before officially opening for business. Fuelvend Express is located at the corner of Poplar and McCord and is owned and operated by Mike and Joe Cooksey. According to the Morning Sentinel, Mike Cooksey stated, "The city was extremely helpful in its willingness to get things done. There are more resources available in the city than what people think." Fuelvend Express utilized the City's facade program to purchase their front awning. Fuelvend Express will be a great addition to the community.

Hoo-ray for Joe and Mike.....despite the fact that the City entered into an agreement with Hucks (who by the way is NOT headquartered in Centralia), to provide fuel for City vehicles and equipment. At least the Cooksey's are spending money within Centralia while the City's $ for fuel goes out of town.
