Store Chain Making 'Kwik Trip' to Natural Gas

摘要

Kwik Trip, a Wisconsin-based convenience store chain, is contributing to both ends of the natural gas transport market, refueling stations and vehicles, that is, both the chicken and the egg. La Crosse-based Kwik Trip operates 400 convenience stores in three states, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa. The first store opened in 1965. The chain began selling fuel in 1970. Despite being essentially in "ethanol country," the company is headed in a different direction.
