Even though she roots for a certain team wearing green and gold, that didn’t stop Cristy from paying attention to Vikings victories as a Minnesota resident, with Pothole pizzas and Pepsi drinks paving the way to Cristy’s victory in the Vikings Opening Drive Sweepstakes. As an avid Mountain Dew drinker, she found herself building up entries for the sweepstakes in no time.

When she was one of three finalists, Cristy said she and the other two finalists were talking, shaking hands, and hugging each other as they figured they each had a one-in-three chance of winning the 2021 Ford Bronco Sport, the grand prize at the end of the giveaway.

One by one, the finalists held a key fob and pressed the lock button to determine whether or not it locked the Ford Bronco. Cristy, last in line to press the button, found she won the Ford Bronco when the other two finalists didn’t pick the correct fob.

“I looked immediately at my husband and my eyes were like saucers,” she said. “It’s a once in a lifetime thing.”

Up until a couple days before she won, Cristy didn’t anticipate winning the Ford Bronco at all. She began saying things like, “When I drive this thing home…” around the house.

Although winning a Ford Bronco sounds like a dream, Cristy had other plans. She and her husband had just purchased a new truck around six months ago— if it wasn’t for that, she said she would have kept the Bronco in a heartbeat.

“I’m selling it back to the dealership and I’m going to take the money I get from that,” Cristy said. “We’ve got two vacations planned this year, so that’s going to make all the difference.”

Congrats to our long time Kwik Rewards member, Cristy!

In 2013, Kwik Trip celebrated the opening of its 400th store in Chisago City, Minn. Just eight years later, Kwik Trip has doubled that number with the grand opening of its 800^th store in Holmen, Wis.

Located at the convenient crossroads interchange of Highways 53 and 35, 1760 Temte St., the doors opened at 5 am on December 30^th. An open house event is scheduled for January 5^th from 9:00 am to 11:00 am, with a ribbon cutting ceremony at 10:00 am.

The newest Kwik Trip is known as a Generation 3 store, incorporating the latest design using softer colors. It is about 9000 sq. ft. in size, and features a car wash and a side diesel canopy for easier access. The diesel canopy will have a non-ethanol fuel station for boats, campers and folks pulling trailers. Inside, guests will be treated to a small grocery market experience with food varieties delivered fresh daily.

“We’re thrilled to reach the 800 store mark, and about doubling our total number of stores in less than a decade,” said Dax Connely, Real Estate Manager at Kwik Trip. “To be able to do so with a Gen 3 store, featuring all the best amenities that our company has to offer, makes it even more special.”

A family-owned company headquartered in La Crosse WI, Kwik Trip is one of the largest independently-held convenience store chains in the United States. Today, Kwik Trip employs more than 32,000 coworkers. Kwik Trip has annually been named a “Top Workplace” by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Wisconsin State Journal, Minneapolis Star Tribune and Des Moines Register.

As a privately-owned company, one of the many employee benefits at Kwik Trip is the commitment to share 40% of the company’s pre-tax profits with its coworkers. Kwik Trip continues to grow through its strong focus on food, value-priced commodities, clean facilities and outstanding customer service.

We’ve been loving the new Take Home Meals being rolled out in our stores over the last few months, and so we decided to think beyond lunch and dinner to spice the mornings up with a new breakfast Take Home Meal!

This Take Home Meal features a cheese and veggie omelette with two sausage links— which allows you to eat your breakfast when it’s convenient for you.

Kevin Buttner, the Food Research and Development Manager at Kwik Trip, said that breakfast has been a long time coming for Take Home Meals.

“Oddly enough, with all of the ready-to-eat breakfast options available on our hot spots, we have still been receiving numerous requests for breakfast Take Home Meals that people can take and eat when it is convenient for them,” said Buttner. This omelette meal heats up quickly in the microwave, and the melted cheese inside makes it taste just like the breakfast you might make at home. Maintaining that quality is important for all Take Home Meals, but definitely presented a challenge when developing the breakfast version.

Buttner also said with all of the low carb meal requests, they were able to fulfill that with the breakfast Take Home Meal. As it stands, there aren’t plans for multiple breakfast Take Home Meal options just yet, but if there’s overwhelmingly positive feedback on the cheese and veggie omelette, it’s possible to see more breakfast options to come in the future.

Until then, gobble up the new breakfast Take Home Meal we have to offer and let us know what you think!

Six different Kwik Trip dairy products were recognized as being among the best in class at the 2021 World Dairy Expo Dairy Product Championships, held in Madison in late August.

The Expo is hosted by the Wisconsin Dairy Products Association and featured over 1,400 entries across 90 different categories. Each product sampled is scored out of 100.

Out of the many products entered and sampled, Kwik Trip’s Nature’s Touch strawberry milk came away with the top overall ranking, with a score of 99.9 in the strawberry milk category.

Alongside that, Kwik Trip’s low-fat chocolate milk placed third in the Low-Fat Chocolate Milk category, with a score of 99.8.

Both of Kwik Trip’s Greek frozen yogurt options, blueberry and black raspberry, placed in the Frozen Yogurt category. Blueberry placed second, with black raspberry right behind as a close third, with scores of 98.4 and 98.3, respectively.

In the Half & Half category, Kwik Trip’s half & half creamer placed second, with a score of 99.35.

Lastly, placing second in the Creative/Innovative product category is Kwik Trip’s salted caramel cappuccino.

Since there are no other national contests that feature all dairy products, the World Dairy Expo is one of its kind.

“It’s a very unique contest. It’s the only one of its kind in the world,” Brad Legreid, executive director of the WDPA, told Spectrum News1. “There’s no other contest involved all dairy products. So we run the full spectrum from cheese, butter, ice cream, food, milk, yogurt, sour cream, whey—you name it.”

Kyle Schild, Kwik Trip’s Senior Production Manager in the dairy, said that the company is proud to have been honored in such a wide range of products.

“We’re excited to have placed in six different categories,” said Schild. “We feel it is a testament to our coworkers and the products they produce every day for our guests.”
