Salt Lake City, Utah, Sept. 10, 2024 – Maverik — Adventure’s First Stop has broken ground on two new stores in Kansas, marking the adventurethemed c-store brand’s entry into its 14th state of operation. This announcement comes one year after its acquisition of Kum & Go (K&G), expanding its combined presence across more than 840 stores in 21 states from the Midwest to the West Coast.
The two new stores will be located in Garden City at 50 East Acraway Ave. and 2601 East Mary St. Maverik expects to complete construction on both stores and begin serving customers in Garden City by mid-2025.
“Maverik is focused on expanding in areas that have unmet needs for fuel, great food and adventure,” said Maverik’s new CEO and Chief Adventure Guide, Crystal Maggelet. “Thanks to the state’s central location, our entry into Kansas positions us to serve even more customers with freshly prepared food, extensive beverage options and exceptional fuel discounts throughout their Midwest travels.”
The new Maverik stores will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays. The 5,982 square-foot store at 50 East Acraway Ave. will showcase truck and RV fueling lanes, an RV dump and a picnic area. The 4,425 square-foot store at 2601 East Mary St. will feature an auto fuel forecourt and a picnic area. Both locations will offer a full line-up of freshly prepared food offerings like burritos, sandwiches, pizzas and more. Maverik’s “Bean to Cup” coffee will showcase premium coffee blends accompanied by a delicious selection of pastries.
Maverik will serve guests heading to Garden City’s nearby attractions and outdoor activities including Lee Richardson Zoo, Parrot Cove Indoor Water Park and more. Customers will feel a sense of adventure inside the store with panoramic photos and maps of the state’s outdoor destinations on the walls, alongside exciting adventure videos playing on TVs, gas pumps and soda fountains. Maverik focuses on delivering a great shopping experience with well-stocked, uncluttered aisles that are well-lit and open.
Maverik is dedicated to giving back to the areas where it operates, with an emphasis on education, local hunger and affordable housing. Recently, Maverik donated $1 million to Feeding America®, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization. Learn more about Maverik’s Community Involvement.
