‘Famous for Pizza:’ Casey’s General Store opening in Butler County

A carry-out and convenience store chain is planning a new store in Butler County, according to Trenton city officials.

Casey’s General Store has applied to build a nearly 5,000-square-foot retail convenience store and gas station at 700 Wayne Madison Road in Trenton.

The business is aiming to open in early 2019, according to Bill Jones, Trenton’s zoning administrator.

Casey’s, which markets itself as “Famous for Pizza,” has made a recent push into Ohio. The business is an ubiquitous staple in many rural Midwestern communities, especially in Iowa where it is headquartered.

Established in 1968, Casey’s General Stores Inc., (NASDAQ: CASY) operates more than 2,000 stores in 15 states. The company plans to build or acquire 90 to 120 stores in fiscal year 2018, according to its second quarter results.
