College Station, Texas (December 1, 2020) - H&M Wholesale, Inc. (the “Company” or “H&M”) has announced the successful sale of its convenience retail, ChevronTexaco and Shell branded fuel distribution, and commercial business assets to Classic Star Group, LP (“Classic Star”) of Fort Worth, Texas and its affiliates. In 2019 H&M retained Corner Capital’s valuation and strategy services to develop strategic options for its shareholders. After analysis and consideration, the Company elected to pursue a structured sale process for its business assets.

Ms. Mary Walker, Owner of H&M Wholesale, Inc. commented upon the closing of the transaction, “We have had a long and fruitful journey in the industry and look forward to a new chapter as we transition our business to a like-minded neighbor that shares our passion for the business and will take good care of our customers in the Brazos Valley area. Our family is pleased with the end-result and Corner Capital’s advice and assistance proved to be a critical factor in our successful exit.”

H&M was founded in 1960 by Hoover Alford who began his history with Texaco as a Consignee. In 1980, Texaco was selling their real estate and equipment assets to their agents, so Hoover Alford and his wife, Mary Walker, took advantage of this opportunity and incorporated their business as H&M Wholesale, Inc. Mary Walker was later joined by her son, James Boedecker, and the two continued growing their retail business and invested in many dealer-owned retail operations.

“Having known the H&M family for over a decade,” stated Carl Ray Polk, Jr. of Corner Capital, “we were honored to assist them in their efforts. The community will miss their contributions, but we appreciate their trust in managing their transaction. Mary Walker, and her son James Boedeker were outstanding to work with.”
