Hy-Vee Acquires Four QT Convenience Stores

Hy-Vee announced the acquisition of four QT convenience store locations in the Des Moines metro, which will be re-branded under the Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh Express banner on March 20.

Starting late February, all four QT locations will undergo renovations. Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh Express will provide traditional convenience store offerings, in addition to a variety of meal and snack options, including a fresh food express counter serving both breakfast and burgers, Nori Sushi, healthy home meal choices, Hy-Vee Short Cuts grab-and-go fruits and vegetables, fresh fried donuts, bakery options and other food choices for time-strapped customers. Moreover, a wine and spirits section will be available at each of the re-branded locations.

By the same token, fuel pumps are available for customers to fuel up and redeem their Hy-Vee Fuel Saver + Perk points. The four locations will be open from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days per week.
