C-store chain Thorntons will install the dispensers across its forecourts. GripHero has doubled its demand amidst the global spread of Covid-19.

Based in Louisville, Kentucky, Thorntons operates over 200 convenience stores across six states including Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee and Florida. The vertically integrated company offers its own fuel terminals, as well as fresh food and beverages.

“We are thrilled that Thorntons is leading the way in North America with GripHero’s award-winning hand-protection solution. Now, more than ever, protecting customers’ health and wellbeing as well as the environment is a top priority, and GripHero uniquely delivers both through its single item hand-protection release solution,” commented Inventor and MD of GripHero, Oli Yeo.
