Casey's
President and CEO Terry Handley said the company is encouraged by the
gains in its online ordering program and mobile app program. “Since its
rollout in January 2016, total downloads of Casey's mobile app have exceeded
850,000 and that number continues to grow,”
According
to the team at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice Solutions® strategic
partnerships are essential in elevating and evolving brands today. Casey's understands
that and partnered with OpenStore by GasBuddy to launch its mobile app.
When
using the app, consumers can navigate to their nearest Casey's location, check
gas prices, find the latest deals and product offerings, and order pizza from
their smartphones, The app launch closely followed Casey's implementation
of online ordering, which proved
succesful.

approximately 14 percent, and the basket ring of an online order continues to
be around 20 percent higher compared to telephone orders.”
Casey's will continue
to evolve and in 2018 they will be taking further steps to enhance digital
engagement with its customers, including the launch of a loyalty program.
