MEAD, Colo. — QuikTrip its celebrating the grand opening of its newest Colorado location.
The gas station and convenience store company has just opened its newest store in Mead at 3571 Highland Drive, located off Highway 66 just west of Interstate 25.
This is the 10th QT location in Colorado and the second of five locations scheduled to open throughout the Centennial State in 2024.
The new location will create approximately two dozen new jobs and applications are being accepted online.
QuikTrip opened its first Colorado locations in Firestone, Denver and Bennett in 2022, and has since opened stores in Thornton, Greenwood Village, Parker, Evans, and Monument.
The company, which now operates 1,000 stores in 17 states, said it plans to continue expanding throughout Colorado, as well as the Denver area.
“We are excited to bring QuikTrip’s signature commitment to quality and efficient service to Mead,” said QuikTrip Corporate Communications Manager Aisha Jefferson. “The QuikTrip team is working hard to ensure our Mead customers enjoy best-in-class service and amenities from day one, and we look forward to continuing our reputation as a good neighbor in the Mead community.”
Founded in 1958 in Tulsa, QuikTrip said its stores have a full-service kitchen with made-to-order snackles, QTea, coffee, donuts, salads, wraps, pizza by the slice and roller grill items.
In 2022, the QuikTrip in Firestone was part of a price war between gas stations that has resulted in the cheapest fuel in Colorado.
