CLARION, Pa. (EYT) — University Korner gas station and convenience stores have added three new “Korners” with the recent purchase of three Clarion County gas station/convenience stores in Knox, Rimersburg, and Sligo owned by WFH, a privately-held company with Eric Wensel as president.

Yasir Bhatti, one of the owners of University Korner, said the University Korner brand was established about 10 years ago, and the company now has ten stores.
“This brand is for the people of Clarion because this is where it started,” Bhatti said. “It started at University Korner next to the university in Clarion, and we converted all of our stores to the University Korner brand and the three stores in Knox, Sligo, and Rimersburg are also going to be converted.
“We are retaining all of the employees from the three stores. They’ve been very kind and cooperative. We like to keep everyone on board, and these people are very well-qualified who run the stores.”
Operations will continue as normal.
Knox and Rimersburg will continue to include a Subway, but Sligo has removed Subway, and that will be replaced by Hunt Brothers Pizza. The purchase of WFH also included the group’s various car wash locations.
