New York, August 12, 2025 – Ipsos, one of the world’s leading market research companies, today announced that it is preparing the 2025 Channel Check-IN: The C-Store Experience. Now in its third year, this highly anticipated syndicated research program evaluates how leading convenience store and travel center brands deliver against customer expectations for in-store experiences.

Channel Check-IN: The C-Store Experience, fielded by Ipsos’ Channel Performance team and designed in partnership with the consulting and services firm W. Capra, draws on extensive research to outline innovations that are resonating with consumers, understand where brands are meeting consumers’ expectations, and identify where opportunities for improvement exist.

QuikTrip and Love’s Travel Stop have both previously ranked first in the Channel Check-IN: The C-Store Experience. The consumer survey portion of this year’s study has already begun, and the brands that will be assessed via Ipsos’ industry-leading mystery shopping panel will be identified in the coming weeks.

Ipsos expects to have results ready for publication by mid-to-late October, and will conduct complimentary reviews of the results with interested parties earlier that month.

To schedule your appointment to review the results, please contact Chris Koetting, SVP of Strategic Growth – Channel Performance, at [email protected].
