Casey’s General Stores, Inc. operates a network of convenience stores and fuel stations across the United States, with a primary focus on smaller communities and suburban markets. In addition to traditional convenience-store offerings such as fuel, tobacco, snacks, and grocery items, the company has developed a strong reputation for its made-from-scratch pizza, breakfast sandwiches and other fresh-prepared foodservice options. Many locations feature in-store kitchens where sandwiches, bakery items, and specialty beverages are prepared throughout the day to meet evolving customer preferences.
Founded in 1959 in Des Moines, Iowa, Casey’s has grown from a single storefront into a multi-state chain that serves customers in a diverse range of markets. While its footprint is most concentrated in the Midwest, the company has steadily expanded into the Southeast and Plains states, operating over 2,000 stores in rural and suburban communities. This geographic strategy has enabled Casey’s to build strong brand recognition in areas where larger retail competitors may have less presence.
Casey’s leverages a combination of company-operated and franchised locations to maintain operational consistency while supporting local entrepreneurs. Its product mix emphasizes fresh foodservice and value-oriented fuel pricing, aimed at maximizing customer loyalty and leveraging high-frequency visits. In recent years, the company has invested in digital ordering, mobile payment solutions and a loyalty program to enhance convenience and drive repeat business.
Headquartered in Ankeny, Iowa, Casey’s is led by President and Chief Executive Officer Darren Rebelez, who has overseen the company’s continued expansion and focus on foodservice innovation. Under this leadership, Casey’s remains committed to serving its core markets with an emphasis on community engagement, a broad convenience-retail assortment and a commitment to operational excellence.
