Casey’s General Stores, Inc. (NASDAQ: CASY) is a U.S.-based convenience store chain that operates retail fuel stations and food-focused convenience outlets. Founded in 1959 in Boone, Iowa, the company has grown from a single neighborhood store into a regional operator known for combining traditional convenience retailing—fuel, packaged goods and tobacco—with a larger emphasis on fresh and prepared foods.
The company’s stores typically offer gasoline and diesel alongside a range of grocery essentials, grab-and-go items and made-to-order foodservice. Casey’s is especially known for its in-store pizza and other fresh-prepared sandwiches and bakery items, which are marketed as a key differentiator in the convenience retail sector. Many locations also provide ancillary services such as ATM access, lottery, and a loyalty program supported by mobile and digital ordering channels.
Casey’s primarily serves the U.S. Midwest and Plains regions, with a broader footprint that has expanded into adjacent states. Its operating model combines retail store operations with a regional supply and distribution network to support store-level merchandising and food preparation. The company focuses on serving both small towns and suburban markets where one-stop convenience and fuel remain important to local customers.
As a publicly traded company, Casey’s has emphasized a strategy of steady store growth, investment in foodservice and digital capabilities, and operational execution tailored to community markets. The company’s combination of fuel retailing and prepared foods positions it competitively among convenience retailers seeking to capture both quick trips and meal occasions.
