Overview
Royal Farms is owned by Cloverland Farms Dairy and the name Royal Farms was chosen when Cloverland Farms Dairy merged with Royal Dunloggin Dairy in 1968 and then decided to open a convenience store using the word Royal from Royal Dunloggin and Farms from Cloverland Farms. Known for their fried chicken and giant cockerel statues. Royal Farms opened its first store in 1959 in Baltimore,[3] which remains where the company's headquarters are based.[3]
As of October 2019[update], Royal Farms has 214 locations throughout the Mid-Atlantic states. More than 100 are in the home state of Maryland. The chain sells many typical convenience-store items, such as coffee, candy, soft drinks, bagels and donuts, lottery tickets, and other basic groceries. All locations offer a kitchen serving hot food items.[4] Royal Farms' major competitors include Wawa, Sheetz, 7-Eleven, Rutter's, High's and Turkey Hill Minit Markets. They have self check out.
In September 2014, Royal Farms purchased naming rights to the Baltimore Arena.[5] On November 22, 2022, Royal Farms announced that it would open up its first North Carolina location in early 2023, with more locations coming soon to that state.
