Customers will earn fuel discounts in increments of 10 cents off per gallon at 14 participating Uppy’s-operated fueling stations for every $50 they spend at Ukrop’s.

RICHMOND, VA –– Two local, family-owned and Richmond-based businesses are partnering to give Richmond residents significant discounts on fuel purchases at 14 participating local gas stations.

Officials with Uppy’s Convenience Stores, Inc. and Ukrop’s Super Markets, Inc. at a news conference today unveiled plans for a new customer loyalty program.

By the end of the summer, more than 30 Uppy’s-operated fueling stations will participate in the program.

Each fuelperks!® discount can be used for up to 20 gallons of gas or diesel every time you use your Ukrop’s UVC card. Once a reward is redeemed, customers start earning a new reward based on their qualifying grocery purchases at any of the 24 Richmond-area Ukrop’s locations. Customers can check their grocery receipt for their fuelperks!® balance. Customers can sign up at ukrops.com/fuelperks or call 804-353-FUEL (3835).

President of Uppy's Convenience Stores Steven Uphoff said, “Our new fuel discount program with Ukrop’s is about one thing—rewarding customers. We share Richmonders’ concerns about rising fuel prices, and fuelperks!® is one way that we’re trying to help roll down prices at the pump. We are very pleased to be partnering with Ukrop’s on this program. Together, we’re expanding fuelperks!® in the Richmond area to include even more fueling locations for even greater convenience.”

“This new program is the most ambitious customer loyalty and rewards program since the launch of our Ukrop’s Valued Customer Card in 1987,” said Ukrop’s President and CEO Bobby Ukrop.
