Circle K snacks and beverages

Circle K is a global brand of convenience stores and proprietary food and beverage products, including snacks, coffee, and fountain drinks. The brand was established in El Paso, Texas, in 1951 when Fred Hervey purchased three Kay's Food Stores. Since then, it has grown into one of the largest convenience retail chains in the world.

While the brand originated in the United States, it is currently owned and operated by the Canadian multinational Alimentation Couche-Tard. Manufacturing for Circle K private label products occurs in multiple countries, typically localized to the regions where the stores operate to ensure freshness and supply chain efficiency. In North America, many products are produced via partnerships with regional manufacturers.
