JASON FLOY, RETAIL OPERATIONS DIRECTOR
We’re excited to share some recent and upcoming updates across our retail and convenience store locations, all aimed at improving your experience and continuing to serve the needs of our local communities.
Our Thompson, IA convenience store is currently undergoing a major remodel. These updates include new flooring throughout the store, refreshed countertops, updated coffee bar areas, and fresh paint. Along with the visual improvements, we’re also working to streamline and condense product offerings to make the store more efficient while still providing the same daily essentials you rely on.
In addition to these upgrades, we’re pleased to share that Ashley Posey is now managing both the Burt and Thompson convenience store locations. Many of you already know Ashley’s commitment to customer service, and we’re excited to see her leadership extend across both locations.
Meanwhile, our Leroy, MN convenience store will be getting a fresh look this spring with the installation of new exterior siding. This update will give the building an improved curb appeal and reflect our continued investment in maintaining high-quality facilities for our customers.
On the retail fuel side, we’ve made the transition to E15 fuel at several of our Iowa locations, in line with the state’s updated fuel standards. Locations now offering E15 include Algona, Buffalo Center, Goldfield, and Thompson. Since the change, we’ve seen strong fuel volume growth at each location. E15 is a cost-effective and cleaner-burning fuel option, and we’re proud to offer it as part of our ongoing effort to support both customer needs and renewable fuel options.
We appreciate your continued support at our convenience store and fuel locations. Whether you’re stopping in for coffee or fueling up with E15, we’re proud to be part of your community and look forward to serving you throughout 2026 and beyond.
