New General Store Open in Effingham

Effingham-Clay Service Company recently held a grand opening celebration for their new General Store in Effingham, Ill. The store not onlyfeatures traditional FAST STOP fueling options and convenience store items, but also a propane dispenser for propane-powered vehicles, Illinois homegrown products, and a general store area with pet food, boots, fencing supplies, and more. Garage doors are also on display, courtesy of the cooperative's Altamont Overhead Door business.
The Illinois Homegrown products display includes jams and jellies, salsas, preserves, sauces, candles, and dry mixes. A cooler holds a variety of meats and cheeses.
