Casey’s Terry Handley Appointed President

ANKENY, Iowa -- Casey's General Stores Inc. has tapped Terry W. Handley to serve as its president.

The move comes after the board of directors gave the nod to Handley, who will also continue to serve in his current role of chief operating officer (COO).

"Terry has demonstrated tremendous leadership throughout his tenure at Casey's," said Chairman and CEO Robert J. Myers. "Our customers, employees and shareholders have benefited greatly from his retail experience over the years, and his guidance will be valuable as the company continues to grow throughout the Midwest."

Handley joined the Ankeny-based retailer more than 33 years ago. He has served in various roles, including director of marketing, vice president of foodservice and senior vice president of store operations. He assumed the COO position in June 2006.

Casey's General Stores operates more than 1,780 convenience stores in 14 Midwest states.
