Fuel-selling convenience stores hit an eight-year high even as total count slips

Fuel-selling convenience stores hit an eight-year high even as total count slips

NACS and NIQ TDLinx put the 2026 U.S. convenience-store count at 151,975 locations, down 280 stores. Fuel-selling stores rose to 122,620, the highest in eight years. For operators, the data sharpens where forecourt uptime, fuel margins, and foodservice investments matter most by state and ownership scale.

  • 01A flat national store count can still mean more forecourts to run: fuel-selling locations grew 768 sites even as total c-stores fell 280, per NACS.
  • 02State variation is the real planning variable: Texas alone has 16,504 stores while Alaska has 185, and New York saw the biggest decline (-143), per NACS.
  • 03Ownership mix drives vendor go-to-market: 63% of stores sit with operators at 10 or fewer locations, a reminder that ‘enterprise’ rollouts must work for small fleets too, per NACS.
