The Draper store is the first of several SLC-area Kum & Go locations set to open in the next year.

Family-owned convenience store chain Kum & Go will open the doors to their first store in the Salt Lake City market.

The Draper store is the first of several SLC-area Kum & Go locations set to open in the next year. The chain will also open stores in South Jordan, Murray and Herriman, Utah in the first half of 2023.

“We are beyond excited to open our first store in Salt Lake City. This is the culmination of years of work by our Associates who are passionate about making days better in retail. We believe Utahns will enjoy Kum & Go’s fresh perspective to the convenience industry and look forward to significant growth in the area for years to come,” said Tanner Krause, Chief Executive Officer at Kum & Go.

Kum & Go is rooted in their purpose to “Make Days Better,” and focuses on three pillars of excellence: people, philanthropy, and planet. They are currently partnered with the Field of Dreams Salt Lake Valley Habitat for Humanity build, of which the Kum & Go-sponsored home is projected to be completed in Spring of 2023.

The new, fresh, made-to-order food program features stackers and bowls, as well as grab-and-go burritos, available for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. All items feature fresh, upscale ingredients including brown rice, vegetables and premium proteins like brisket and falafel, while also serving up a fun convenience store flair, with toppings such as Corn Nuts and Takis.
