US convenience stores and retail fuelling locations operator Majors Management has closed the acquisition of 35 retail fuel and convenience store locations in Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania from Alimentation Couche-Tard (Circle K).
The move follows a US Federal Trade Commission consent order to maintain competition in these markets.
The acquired locations will be rebranded as MAPCO and upgraded to offer a modern environment with convenient grab-and-go meals and coffee.
Majors Management president Ben Smith stated: “These stores are an exciting strategic addition for Majors Management, and we are thrilled to expand the MAPCO brand into Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania.
“We are honoured to serve customers in three new states and welcome them to the MAPCO experience, which combines quality fuel, great food and beverage selections, and the convenience and rewards customers love.”
The new MAPCO stores will offer a customer-focused experience with a range of amenities and the MYReward$ loyalty programme.

Majors Management is planning to retain current employees and invest in facility upgrades.
The expansion is a strategic move by Majors Management to grow MAPCO’s footprint into new regions while maintaining high standards of service and local investment.
In February 2025, Majors Management acquired four Mac’s Food Stores from affiliates of McNeill Oil Company in Aberdeen, Pinehurst and Southern Pines in North Carolina, strengthening its footprint in the state.
In a related development, Tokyo-based Seven & i Holdings (7&i) and Alimentation Couche-Tard recently reached an agreement to evaluate the feasibility of a divestment strategy.
