Kwik Trip talks $151 million expansion and if that means more stores next to each other; La Crosse County Board chair Kruse previews meeting

We got Kwik Trip on Monday to talk about its $151 million expansion but, more importantly, Ben Leibl from the company joined La Crosse Talk PM (18:00) to explain to us if these plans mean that they will be building more stores right next to each other.

La Crosse Talk PM airs weekdays at 5:06 p.m. Listen on the WIZM app, online here, or on 92.3 FM / 1410 AM / 106.7 FM (north of Onalaska). Find all the podcasts here or subscribe to La Crosse Talk PM wherever you get your podcasts.

Leibl works public relations with Kwik Trip, where it was announced the company was awarded an additional $15 million in state tax credits if it hits expansion and hiring marks.

We also threw Leibl some other half-baked ideas (25:55) we’ve hashed out in the past on the show that Kwik Trip should be doing in La Crosse.

Before that, however, La Crosse County Board chair Monica Kruse joined (00:00) to discuss the upcoming elections, this week’s monthly meeting and an interesting five-year plan they’re working on.
