Spinx is an American company with multiple gas station and convenience store locations in South Carolina. The company was founded in Greenville, South Carolina in 1972 by Stewart Spinks. [1]
The company name is a word play on the family Spinks and the Sphinx.
Founded in 1972, Spinx operates 80 convenience store locations and 50 car washes across South Carolina. [2] The company has also raised money for the American Cancer Society. [3]
The company's gas stations also sell fried chicken, chicken biscuits, and chicken tenders. Writing for It's a Southern Thing, Mary Patterson Boone gave it a negative review, stating "if I'm fantasizing about fast-food fried chicken while eating something claiming to be better because it's the opposite, something isn't quite clicking." [4]
