QuikTrip opened its third Aurora, Colorado, convenience store on Thursday, marking its 21st location to the state. The newest Denver-area store is at 203 N. Gun Club Road.

The new store features a full-service kitchen with fresh, made-to-order meals and grab-and-go options. QuikTrip’s new location will bring around 24 new jobs to the area, the company said.

“As we expand across the Denver metro, we continue to show how our presence brings jobs, efficient service and reliable support to neighborhoods,” Jefferson said.

QuikTrip said it plans to open more Colorado stores later this year, including in Parker, Commerce City and Colorado Springs.

The full list of store locations are:

  • 19200 Longs Way, Parker 
  • 18400 E. 81st Ave., Commerce City
