Turjo Wadud, the co-CEO of Georgia-based gas-station owner Mountain Express Oil Co., is a self-proclaimed health nut.
So when Brother's Food Mart co-owner Imad Faiez “Eddie” Hamdan picked up Wadud from Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport for a 9 a.m. tasting of his New Orleans-based convenience store chain's full menu—including its famous fried chicken—he was skeptical.
"Fried food is not my thing," Wadud said. "I can't believe I'm eating fried chicken."
Hamdan chimed in, "but this guy was eating the hell out of it."
Wadud and Hamdan were in the early stages of talks that resulted this week in the purchase of Brother's Food Mart by Mountain Express. The company, which owns gas stations and convenience stores across the U.S., has purchased the majority of locations of Brother's Food Mart in Louisiana, their fueling rights, and exclusive rights to the name "Brother's Chicken."
The deal will add Brother's to a growing Mountain Express empire that includes more than 200 gas stations and nearly 600 employees.

Another local company being acquired out of state. Yet another economic failure on the belt of JBE.

It's going to be about five minutes after the deal closes that this idiot announces he is going to a healthier oil or vegan breading or something else that will ruin the product. Get it now if you want one last good meal.

Wait I went to Buc-Eee's outside B'ham twice in a weekend recently. I didn't know they had fried chicken/chicken tenders.

Birdie's is my convenience store of choice in the river parishes. The meat pies are solid.

How does he operate with only 3 employees per location. Lots of overtime or human trafficking side hustle
