Circle K is continuing to expand its Northeast Florida footprint, with two additional Jacksonville locations in the development pipeline. One is proposed near Normandy Boulevard and Yellow Water Road in Southwest Jacksonville, while the other is planned for an outparcel at The Nexus at Regency redevelopment. The Jacksonville Daily Record reported on both projects October 26.

According to the Jacksonville Daily Record, the proposed Southwest Jacksonville development could include a 3,956-square-foot convenience store and 12 fueling positions, including diesel pumps. JEA issued a service-availability determination letter for the property on October 22, an early indication that the project is being explored. It does not mean the development has received final approval.

Circle K is also preparing another Jacksonville location at The Nexus at Regency, the redevelopment of the former Regency Square Mall in Arlington. The city is reviewing a construction permit for the 5,200-square-foot gas station and convenience store, the publication reported.

The two projects would add to Circle K’s established presence in Northeast Florida, where the retailer already operates more than 100 locations. Its footprint includes at least 60 stores in Duval County, with additional locations throughout St. Johns, Clay, Nassau and Baker counties, according to the publication.

Circle K Stores Inc. is headquartered in Tempe, Arizona, and operates under parent company Alimentation Couche-Tard, a Canadian convenience and fuel retail group. The company operates thousands of stores internationally, with locations across North America and several European and Asian markets, according to the publication.

With both Jacksonville developments at different stages of review, Circle K continues to build on its regional network, adding potential convenience and fueling options in two areas of the city.
