​Our Story

Thank you for your business!

​The Whalen Corporation is a family owned and operated business that has been serving the greater Triangle community since 1984. We believe in providing a safe workplace for our team members, excellent customer service, and a clean, well maintained store. We work hard to include local products in our stores and always try to bring you the very best.

As times have changed since 1984, so have we. Our locations now offer tremendous wine and craft beer selections, we brew Larry's Coffee all day long and always are looking for ways to make our business more convenient to our customers. 

When you support us, you are supporting our community. We are active members in the following community partners: Raleigh Professional Woman's Forum, Rotary Club of Crabtree, Junior League of Raleigh, Frankie Lemmon Foundation, North Carolina Petroleum and Marketer's Association, Knightdale Chamber of Commerce and Trip n' Sip Travel.
