Welcome to the Georgia Association of Convenience Stores
|
In 1973, convenience store operators united together in to create The Georgia Association of Convenience Stores, Inc. (GACS). Sunday Blue Laws convinced operators and owners across the state to create a much stronger united voice at the State Capitol. Today, advocacy is still the primary function for GACS. GACS staff monitors legislation daily during the Georgia General Assembly (January-April) and reports changes to the membership on a regular basis.
Year round, we monitor all State of Emergency events, and work with regulatory agencies to keep members abreast of changes affecting their bottom line. We're proud to be the foremost source for convenience store information in Georgia. |
