Stuckey's CEO Wants To Make 'Road Trips Fun Again'

ATLANTA — Remember the by-gone days of travel when rest stops included a visit to a road-side oasis that was Stuckey’s for gas, food and a Pecan Log Roll?

Not everyone will, but those who do — and those who want to know more — would be interested to hear what Stephanie Stuckey, CEO and President of Stuckey’s Corporation has to say at the Buckhead Business Association’s 2nd Cup Webinar Series.

Stuckey is the guest speaker Thursday at this week’s installment of the webinar series, and she will be discussing travel ahead of Spring Break and summer in the presentation, “Stuckey’s: Making Road Trips Fun Again.”

After the company, which was founded in Georgia in 1937 was sold nearly 30 years later, the Stuckey family reacquired the business in the ‘80s. When Stephanie Stuckey took over in November 2019, the company underwent a rebranding, purchased a healthy pecan snack company and added three new franchised stores. With an expanded business-to-business retail base and increased online sales, Stuckey’s plans to acquire a pecan processing and candy manufacturing plant to add to the business.

Stephanie Stuckey, who is an alum of the University of Georgia at Athens and UGA Law School, has served as Atlanta’s director of sustainability and resilience, a trial attorney and the head of an environmental nonprofit law firm.

The 2nd Cup Webinar Series is held each Thursday at 10 a.m. online.
