SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – The Wisconsin-based Kwik Trip chain has planted its flag in South Dakota. The company opened its first South Dakota convenience store in a Sioux Falls suburb just over the Minnesota birder. Soon there will be five more around town. The new store is Number 1,021 on the company roster, although it carries the alternate corprate name Kwik Star. Actually, too, the number of stores is nearer 800. The numbering system maintains stores that have been rebuilt or relocated. The new store is 9,000 square feet. Still, it’s a lot of karuba.

Sense of humor, anyone? Kwik Trip posted this map to help people know the states where it operates and where the brand name is Kwik Trip and where it’s Kwik Star. Could Ohio be next?
