Kum & Go Business Overview & NNN Investment Profile

Kum & Go was a Des Moines, Iowa-based, family-owned convenience store chain that the Krause family built over 64 years; it had over 400 locations across 13 states when Maverik agreed to acquire it from Krause Group. On August 29, 2023, Maverik, a subsidiary of family-owned FJ Management, completed its acquisition of Kum & Go and Solar Transport from Krause Group. Maverik said in April 2024 that it would rebrand Kum & Go stores in markets the two chains shared (Utah, Colorado and Wyoming) while other states were under evaluation, and in August 2024 it reported completing its Colorado rebrands; confirm the current brand and tenant at each site.

Private company: Kum & Go and its acquirer Maverik are privately held, and our ratings database records no S&P or Moody’s rating for Kum & Go, Maverik or FJ Management. NNN investors evaluating Kum & Go or Maverik-branded properties should assess the tenant and any guarantor named in the lease from their own financial information.

Kum & Go / Maverik Integration: What NNN Investors Need to Know

The 2023 Maverik acquisition of Kum & Go creates an important underwriting consideration for NNN investors: which entity is the current lease guarantor on any specific property? The tenant or guarantor on a given lease may be Kum & Go, L.C., a Maverik entity or another party, depending on when and by whom the lease was signed. Our ratings database records no agency rating for FJ Management; confirm the tenant and any guarantor named in each lease.

Before the acquisition, Maverik had more than 400 locations across 12 western states, including Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Colorado. At closing the combined network had over 800 stores in 20 states, and Maverik reported more than 840 stores in 20 states in August 2024; without a verified agency rating in our ratings database, judge lease support from the named guarantor’s own financial information.

Active listings InvestmentGrade.com tracks with an asking cap rate (stated in the listing, or computed from its stated income and price when no rate is stated), listings last observed October 16, 2026. Asking cap rates are not closed-sale cap rates. The middle half is the range from the 25th to the 75th percentile of listings. The 10-year Treasury yield is 5.24% as of October 1, 2026 (FRED series DGS10). Ratings are the agency ratings in our ratings database for the entity shown, which may be a parent company; the rating type (for example issuer, senior unsecured debt, long-term debt or revenue bond ratings) varies by company and is shown on each tenant page. A rating applies to a lease only if the rated entity signs or guarantees it, so confirm the tenant and any guarantor in the lease. n/a means no verified rating is on file. Not shown because fewer than 3 active listings with a published cap rate were observed: Kum & Go, Casey's General Stores.

Compare a Kum & Go property with rated convenience operators such as 7-Eleven, Inc. (A-/Baa2) and Circle K, whose parent Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. is rated BBB+/Baa1; those ratings apply to a lease only if the rated entity signs or guarantees it. Pricing for a specific site depends on its location, remaining lease term and guarantor.
