To celebrate this milestone, Kwik Trip is giving registered rewards members the chance to win free fuel for a year just for shopping.

From visit rewards to fuel discounts, each member is able to find unique value with Kwik Rewards.” – David Jackson Digital Marketing and Loyalty Manager The excitement continues into the summer months as new sweepstakes and partnerships roll out through the Kwik Rewards program.

  • For the Fuel & Convenience Store Industry
    FOOT TRAFFIC REPORT FOR THE FUEL & CONVENIENCE STORE INDUSTRY Q1 2017 A NEW ERA FOR THE CONVENIENCE STORE As the convenience store industry adapts to meet customer needs and grow market share, location intelligence is becoming increasingly critical to understanding consumer habits and behaviors. GasBuddy and Cuebiq teamed up in the first quarter of 2017 to issue the first foot traffic report for the fuel and convenience store industry. Highlights: GasBuddy and Cuebiq examined 23.5 million consumer trips to the pumps and convenience stores between January 1 and March 31. In Q1, more than half of GasBuddies visited locations within six miles of their homes or places of employment, giving retailers the opportunity to leverage their greatest resource—knowing their customer base—to localize and personalize their product selection. Weekdays between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. were highly-trafficked hours in Q1. Convenience stores are poised to lure business away from QSRs and grocery stores now that customers can eat quality meals at the same place and time they choose to fill up their tanks. With filling a gas tank clocking in at an efficient 2-3 minutes, the 73% of GasBuddies who spent more than five minutes at locations in Q1 demonstrated that consumers are likely willing to spend some time in store before or after visiting the pumps. QUARTERLY FOOT TRAFFIC REPORT 1 GasBuddy examined nearly 23.5 million consumer trips to gas Indiana-based gas station and stations and c-stores in Q1 2017 convenience store chain Ricker’s enjoys a loyal GasBuddy customer Which fuel brands captured the base—the nearly 50-station brand highest ratio of footfall per station? captured more than 4x the industry average footfall per location in Q1.

In 2018, our community grew stronger. We reached more people and promoted increased awareness of PI in the U.S and the world. We connected with those newly diagnosed and those who are not connected to IDF—but there are still more out there to reach. IDF serves as the voice of the PI community—we ask the tough questions and make sure our community is represented from public policy decisions to research opportunities. Building the IDF community now and in the years to come is made possible by the generosity of donors.

  • Unceasing Consolidation in the C-Store
    COVER STORY Smaller Chains Make Big Moves Unceasing consolidation in the c-store industry paves the way for several new movers and shakers on this year’s Convenience Store News Top 100 ranking A Convenience Store News Staff Report IN THE CONVENIENCE CHANNEL, known for its smaller, neighborhood-focused stores, the big chains keep getting bigger. In the past year, Irving, Texas-based 7-Eleven Inc. added roughly 1,000 stores across 17 states when it acquired most of the retail assets of Dallas-based Sunoco LP. Meanwhile, Laval, Quebec-based Alimen- tation Couche-Tard Inc. kept up its repu- tation as an aggressive acquirer by adding CST Brands Inc. (roughly 1,300 stores) and Holiday Cos. (500-plus stores) to its ever-growing portfolio. With those mega-deals in the books, it’s no surprise 7-Eleven and Couche-Tard sit in the No. 1 and No. 2 spots on this year’s Convenience Store News Top 100 ranking — the same positions they have occupied since 2016. The past year also saw already-large chains like San Antonio-based Andeavor (formerly known as Tesoro Petroleum Corp.) jump 26 spots in ranking to No. 10 after acquiring Western Refining Inc.; and Richmond, Va.-based GPM Investments LLC gain two spots to now rank No. 12 upon acquiring E-Z Mart Stores Inc. Four of last year’s top 25 chains — including CST, Western Refining and Holiday — disappeared from this year’s ranking on account of acquisitions. However, this paved the way for several new names to join this year’s Top 100 ranking, and for several smaller chains to make big moves on the list.
