The first QuikTrip was opened in 1958 in Tulsa, Oklahoma by Chester Cadieux and Burt B. Holmes. QT promotes its gasoline as "high-quality" through guaranteeing it. In 2005, QT and Chevron were the first two retailers to earn a "Top Tier" rating from various automotive manufacturers. The "Top Tier" rating exceeds the United States Environmental Protection Agency's standards for gasoline additives. (http://www.quiktrip.com, 2013) QT stores are known for a wider-than-normal selection of fountain drinks, gourmet sandwiches, and grill items. QuikTrip locations are larger than the average convenience store, offering anywhere from 6 to 29 gas pumps and a large retail space inside offering high-volume items such as branded beer, soda, cigarettes, coffee, and candy.
