This is what made the charging infrastructure in Finland boom.
We have two major grocery chains (a duopoly pretty much), and they started competing for the growing EV customer base by installing chargers at every store of theirs.
Now just one of them has over 300 charging stations with about 2000 plugs, 5 years ago they had next to nothing.
Turns out it's good for business when families stop to charge for 30 minutes, they drop a bunch of money for other services while they're at it.
And I'll rather stop at a store to grab cheap snacks and ready to eat meals vs. paying through the nose for gas station prices. (We actually have some cups, plates, and cutlery in the car just for this)
