OUR HISTORY
In 1928, on borrowed money, brothers Arthur and Alfred Erickson opened a general store in Centuria, Wisconsin.
Their policy of "the best goods and the finest possible customer service" made their little store a big success.
Additional stores were opened in both Wisconsin and Minnesota. With extra money to invest, the brothers got into
the petroleum business and in 1939, the first Holiday was opened in Lindstrom, Minnesota. The company grew to
become the 18th largest convenience store chain in the United States. It ranked 133rd on Forbes' list of
America's largest private companies, with over 500 locations in 10 states, plus two food commissaries, a fuel
terminal and a car wash network.
