3 Big Numbers: The many faces of c-store growth
This story was originally published on C-Store Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily C-Store Dive newsletter. 3 Big Numbers is a weekly column that looks at a few key details from around the c-store industry. Growth has been a hot topic for the convenience industry in 2025. From new stores and M&A to expanded technology and loyalty programs, c-store retailers are taking steps to expand their markets. Some companies are trying to make big moves — we're looking at you, Alimentation Couche-Tard — while others are moving more quietly and methodically. In this week's '3 Big Numbers,' we look at expansion plans from Casey's General Stores and Minuteman Food Mart as well as Sunoco's possible acquisition of Parkland Corp. The number of stores Casey's expects to add in fiscal 2026. As part of its fourth quarter and full year earnings announcement this week, Casey's disclosed that it had opened or acquired a record 270 stores in the past 12 months and expects to open about 80 during the upcoming fiscal year. After the massive acquisition of CEFCO Convenience Stores' 198 sites in fiscal 2025, it seems that Casey's is looking to scale back this year, with an emphasis on building its own stores. 'We can lean heavier on the organic side, because we have a pretty developed land bank that gives us that optionality either way,' Casey's President and CEO Darren Rebelez said during the earnings call. Sure, after 270 locations in one year, 80 might seem like small potatoes. But it's worth remembering that if those stores were their own banner instead of part of Casey's, they would be one of the 100 largest c-store chains in the U.S. The number of months between Sunoco's first bid and final deal for Parkland. While many eyes were on the will-they-won't-they saga between Couche-Tard and 7-Eleven's parent company, Seven & i, a different courtship was going on in the background. Sunoco, best known as a major fuel brand in the U.S., announced last month that it had reached a $9.1 billion deal to acquire Parkland Corp., including more than 640 retail sites. A final decision will come on June 24, when Parkland shareholders vote. It turns out Sunoco has been seeking this acquisition for quite a while, according to a recent timeline released by the two companies. Sunoco first made a $38.50 per share bid for the Canadian fuel and retail company in July 2023 — a bid that Parkland turned down for undervaluing its business. Sunoco tried again later that year with an enhanced bid, but that was also nixed. Now, nearly two years later, Sunoco may finally get what it wants. Then we'll just have to see if it sells the bulk of those c-stores, as it's done in the past. The max number of sites Minuteman Food Mart may introduce with its new branding in the coming year. While Casey's is aiming for 80 new stores and Sunoco may pick up over 600, not all growth that happens is at that scale. Minuteman plans to open between five and 10 new stores in the next year. Given that it currently operates 62 locations, 10 new sites would mean an increase of over 16%. That's nothing to sneeze at. Perhaps more interesting, the company is embracing a new logo at these sites. Minuteman was looking for a way to encapsulate what it stood for — something that could be iconically connected to the brand, the way the swoosh is for Nike or Buc-ee the Beaver is for Buc-ee's. Brand recognition for its new stopwatch-themed icon isn't on par with those iconic logos yet, but time will tell.

Residents of Pennsylvania neighborhood where jet fuel contaminated water still demanding answers, solutions
Residents in one Bucks County, Pennsylvania, neighborhood are still waiting for answers amid concerns of contamination. It's been more than four months since a jet fuel leak from Sunoco's Twin Oaks pipeline tainted the well water of seven homes in the Mt. Eyre neighborhood of Washington Crossing, Upper Makefield Township. "We're still waiting for answers to a lot of really basic questions," Washington Crossing homeowner Naomi Robinson said. "How much fuel was spilled? How long was it ongoing before it was detected?" Sunoco's parent company, Energy Transfer, began doing seismic refraction surveys, a technique for assessing soil conditions, on Thursday. But some residents said it's not enough. They want accountability and transparency. CBS News Philadelphia "We have three young children living here, so we're very concerned about what we may be drinking, what we may be breathing in," Washington Crossing homeowner Justine Zacharatos said. Last month, Energy Transfer drilled three holes in the ground on Glenwood Drive to test daily for the presence of jet fuel in the groundwater table. Government regulators ordered the company to supply all residents in the neighborhood with bottled water and install well filters. "We requested our normal delivery," Washington Crossing homeowner Rob Kuzniacki, who lives on Bruce Road, said. "We got a quick email back, the only communication on it, and it just said we're not in the impacted zone anymore and that's going to stop, along with testing. So, it's been frustrating and kind of confusing." CBS News Philadelphia reached out to Energy Transfer about the water delivery problem and is still waiting to hear back. Dozens of residents have filed a lawsuit and are demanding the pipeline be shut down. "We don't know if any day our well could fill up with jet fuel, so it's a big concern," Zacharatos said. The U.S. Department of Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration has scheduled a virtual meeting to update residents on the remediation efforts on June 25 at 7 p.m.
