Casey’s Store to break ground soon

The planned Casey’s General Store is expected to break ground soon, according to Casey’s director of finance, Sam James. The new store is aiming for a February to March open date, depending on the weather. The store will be about 3300 square feet and will have four fuel pumps. The store will offer all the classic services that Casey’s has been known for. These include pizza, donuts and a coffee area, to name a few.

Casey’s has half of its stores located in towns with population under 3500.

“We are excited to get the store up and running and to serve the community of Monona,” James said in an email.

Birdnow Chevrolet of Monona is losing some of its current lot space, since the store will be built adjacent the dealership. 

Mark Birdnow, owner of Birdnow dealerships, was excited to have a new neighbor:

“I just wanted to say that I am pleased to be able to help in the business growth of Monona. It’ll be a great addition to the business landscape of the town and hopefully it will attract more people to come this way, and be good for customer traffic at our store. Besides they make really good pizza!”
