Kwik Trip is planning two locations in Fargo, North Dakota, Goldmark Commercial Real Estate said on its Facebook page.
These will be the La Crosse, Wisconsin-based convenience-store chain’s first locations in the Rough Rider State. One location is on 3.92 acres, the other 4.72 acres, according to Fargo-based Goldmark’s social media posts. Opening dates were not given.
Kwik Trip declined a CSP request for comment.
- Kwik Trip is No. 11 on CSP’s 2023 Top 202 ranking of convenience store chains by store count.
Fargo, with more than 128,000 people, is the largest city in North Dakota, and the nearest Kwik Trip is about 160 miles away in Minnesota.
This will be Kwik Trip’s seventh state. It has locations in Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin under the Kwik Trip banner and stores in Illinois, Iowa and South Dakota under the Kwik Star name.
The first South Dakota store opened Sept. 21 in Brandon.
La Crosse, Wisconsin-based Kwik Trip opened its first store in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, in 1965. It has about 800 locations under the Kwik Trip and Kwik Star flags. One of the biggest independently held c-store chains in the country, it produces more than 80% of the products sold in its stores, which are supplied by its own bakery, commissary, dairy and distribution center.
