Retailer Spotlight
SUMMER AVENUE CITGO - MEMPHIS
Lottery sales at Summer Ave. Citgo in Memphis continue to grow, and owner Gurdeep "Deep" Singh is happy to tell us why. "Good customer service, attractive ticket displays and full dispensers," says Mr. Singh.
When looking around his location, it's easy to see what he means. Winning tickets are posted throughout the store, not just at the register. The ticket dispensers are full, with an emphasis on each month's new instant games. "I make sure everyone knows to keep everything stocked," he says, pointing out the importance of training staff about lottery.
Thanks for the tips, Mr. Singh, and thanks for being a Tennessee Lottery Retailer!
