Wilson Farms

Collegetown location in Tompkins County

 Wilson Farms was a chain of convenience stores located across CNY, WNY, Twin Tiers, and the North Country (later as Sugarcreek after buying those out).  Tops had started them in 1969 (they previously had B-Kwik, which were simply smaller stores).  When Tops left Onondaga County in 1986 (brought back in 2010 after buying most of P&C and Quality in WNY from Penn Traffic), Wilson Farms was the only way to get Tops brand products in Syracuse, and under Ahold ownership, then-sister brands Finast and Giant.  Tops Xpress began in 2001, and Wilson Farms were spun off, eventually sold to 7-Eleven.  Sadly, very few are still 7-Eleven in CNY.  Some are indie cornershops and others vacant or even demolished.  Price Chopper once had Mini Chopper in the Pine Hills section of Albany, but now pair up with select Sunocos (many are now 7-Elevens themselves).  Here's what I can dig up (I won't find them all because it's too painstaking, but you get the gist). Wilson Farms also operated stores under the name Sugarcreek in the North Country and Twin Tiers (especially after separating from Tops).
