Convenience store grocery and merchandise sales measure revenue from grocery and general-merchandise categories sold inside Casey's stores.

Casey's reported $4.564 billion of grocery and general merchandise revenue in fiscal 2026, up from $4.144 billion in fiscal 2025.

Grocery and merchandise added about $420 million of sales

The increase was approximately $419.7 million, or about 10.1%.

That growth reflects mature-store demand, pricing and mix, and changes in store count.

Grocery represented about 72.0% of inside sales

Prepared food and dispensed beverage revenue was $1.777 billion.

Together the two categories generated about $6.340 billion of inside sales, putting grocery and merchandise at roughly 72.0% of the total.

Sales share differs from gross-profit share

Grocery and merchandise generated about 61.1% of inside gross profit because its 35.8% margin was well below prepared food's 58.6%.
