Circle Ks success in the convenience retailing industry spans more than 60 years.

Our roots trace back to 1951 when Fred Hervey purchased three Kays Food Stores in El Paso, Texas. Little did anyone know that these stores would serve as the beginning of Circle K one of the nations leading convenience store chains. During the early years, Herveys enterprising spirit enabled the company to make its mark in the southwestern part of the United States.

He grew the Circle K chain into neighboring New Mexico and Arizona, which has been the companys home base since 1957.
