Salt Lake City, Utah-based Maverik, a national operator of branded convenience stores and gas stations, has announced the further consolidation of its headquarters operations and relocation of its Des Moines, Iowa, Kum & Go headquarters to Salt Lake City, Utah.
The relocation will impact 100 Des Moines employees on or after October 6, 2025.
According to a company statement, "As part of our ongoing efforts to improve efficiency and better serve our growing customer base, Maverik has made the difficult decision to consolidate its Base Camp headquarters in Salt Lake City. A limited presence will remain in Des Moines to support geographically based business needs. We are currently working closely with impacted Team Members to develop individual plans, including relocation opportunities, and are committed to supporting them with transparency and care throughout this transition."
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life, nor promises of a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something terrible hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, at any time, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. While many employees can read the writing on the wall, why do most assume it’s targeted at someone else? Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
