Missy Hughes, WEDC’s Secretary and CEO, said Kwik Trip is one of the state’s “most instantly recognizable success stories.”

“While most of us are familiar with Kwik Trip for its retail operations, the company continues to grow its manufacturing and supply chain base in our state, which is creating hundreds of jobs and new investments even faster than anyone could have anticipated,” Hughes said.

Kwik Trip CEO and President Scott Zietlow said growth is good, not only for the company, but coworkers and the communities served.

“As a top workplace, we are able to provide strong, vibrant jobs throughout Wisconsin. We appreciate the support from the WEDC to make this happen,” Zietlow said.
