And, of MDE's clients over the 40+ years we've been in business, none have understood this quite as well as the Kwik Trip team. 

​

Starting with a handful of stores in the Des Moines area, we now serve more than 140 Kwik Trip/Star locations across Iowa, Minnesota and both North and South Dakota. Providing landscaping, lawn care, snow removal, irrigation and exterior facility maintenance services, we're proud to help make Kwik Trip's stores, truck stops and even vacant lots look their best.

​

Each summer, we send an MDE team member (who is also a certified Iowa Master Gardener) to conduct audits of the stores where we provide landscaping and lawn care services. The auditor takes photos and compiles a report with recommendations on replacing dead plants, refreshing mulch and other actions that can help a store look its best. Then, we send recommendations to the appropriate District Leaders and ask them if they would like estimates to be created.
