Methodology

For year-over-year benchmarking purposes, CSP’s Top 202 is a list of the largest convenience-store chains ranked by U.S. store count as of Jan.1, 2021. Any pending sales are not included.

* Since Jan. 1, 7-Eleven Inc. (No. 1) has acquired the Speedway chain (No. 3), Murphy USA (No. 6) has acquired QuickChek (No. 46), and Casey’s General Stores (No. 4) has acquired Buchanan Energy (No. 75). The acquired are included on the 2021 Top 202 because the date each acquisition closed fell after Jan. 1, 2021. RaceTrac and RaceWay stores have been separated due to their unique business models.
