Kum & Go announces expansion to Detroit in 2024
The fuel and convenience retailer plans to open various locations in the Detroit area over the next two years.
Kum & Go will be continuing their expansion into Michigan with a set of Detroit area stores to open in 2024 and future plans for over 50+ total stores in the market over several years. The family-owned, Des Moines-based convenience retail chain has a widespread presence across the Midwest and western parts of the country, with over 400 stores in 11 states.
“We are excited to announce our entry into the Detroit market. We’ve been warmly welcomed as we prepare to enter the Grand Rapids area and with the addition of Detroit, believe Kum & Go will be the lead convenience operator across the state as we continue our growth and expansion. Michigan is full of great people and great communities, and we know Kum & Go’s fresh perspective to convenience will create many opportunities there,” said Tanner Krause, Chief Executive Officer at Kum & Go.
Kum & Go will bring a fresh perspective centered around people, food, and digital technology to Detroit. They are also launching a new menu across their footprint. Rallied around ‘Real, Fresh, Fast Eats’, the new made-to-order menu features stackers, bowls, and grab-and-go burritos for all dayparts.
“We’re thrilled to continue our expansion in Michigan with this move into the Detroit area. Detroit’s ever evolving and changing city present an exciting opportunity for growth and expansion. We’re excited to start serving and connecting with this community,” said Niki Mason, Senior Vice President of Store Development.
