Kwik Trip, Inc.

As the founder of Kwik Trip Inc., John Hansen was at the forefront of the young, but growing c-store industry. Under his leadership, the chain was one of the first to offer warehouse distribution, fresh baked goods, private-label products such as its signature milk program, and open its own commissary. Kwik Trip was also a pioneer in c-store technology and point-of-sale scanning. Hansen was inducted into Convenience Store News' Convenience Industry Hall of Fame in 2002.
