As you and your neighbors patronize the retail stores and cardtrol fueling locations of NuWay-K&H Cooperative, we’re reinvesting the profits in these facilities to serve you and your communities for years to come.
We recently added gasoline products to the cardtrol at Goldfield, IA which until now has offered only diesel. In fact, we rebranded this cardtrol with the Cenex image and installed a lighted canopy.
Not only did we add Regular Unleaded gasoline, but we added Unleaded 88 Octane gasoline, similar to our Elmore fueling location.
NuWay-K&H Cooperative spent a considerable sum of money to make these changes, although much of the electronics needed for the new pumps were already on-site.
Since it is located on a major highway, we believe the Cenex platform and new products at Goldfield will be a win-win for the cooperative and for its customers.
Thompson upgrades: inside and outside
As you know, our retail store at Thompson, IA is not just a convenience store. It’s a grocery store serving the community.
The cooler being used to refrigerate food products in the Thompson store was at least 30 years old and ending its useful life. So, this spring, we installed a new 24-foot open air cooler.
We made some changes outside the Thompson store, as well. The store’s parking lot is massive, and we’ve always had trouble with a spring under the parking lot that’s caused the surface to heave.
This spring, we decided to dig down and excavate a 60×60-foot area and replace it with a firm foundation. Then, we poured a new concrete diesel island and installed new lighting. We plan to pour a new gas island in the future.
Again, we’re planning to serve the community of Thompson for a long time, so we decided to fix the foundations of our parking lot once and for all.
Improvements at the Goldfield cardtrol include the Regular Unleaded and Unleaded 88 Octane, rebranding this cardtrol with the Cenex image and installing a lighted canopy.
