Kum & Go

At Kum & Go, we are striving to become the #1 convenience retailer in the U.S. by 2021. We're excited about this effort and serious about achieving it. One way that we are progressing toward this part of the Kum & Go Vision is by truly embracing our culture and the elements that comprise it. We are currently expanding our market into Colorado, with 8 new locations going up in Colorado Springs by December 2012!

Similar to the Air Force Academy, our culture is driven by five core values:

• Passion - "We love what we do, and it shows in our work."
• Integrity - "We do the right thing, even when it is difficult."
• Teamwork - We believe that greatness is only achieved in unity."
• Caring - "We have genuine compassion for our customers, associates, families and communities."
• Excellence - "We expect and deliver superior performance."

Our associates are the embodiment of these core values and have the opportunity to actively live these values every day on the job. That's what makes working at Kum & Go such a great experience and important part of our associates' careers. If you're interested, here are a few facts about Kum & Go:
