Family Owned Taylors Quik Market

Family Owned – 70 Years

The Beginning…

Founded in the 1950’s, Taylor’s is home to the most genuine people in the convenience store and retail industry. The founder, Jim Taylor, was born and raised on his family’s farm in Orum, Nebraska. Upon completing his Korean War Naval Tour aboard the USS Saint Paul, Jim Taylor started his own tank wagon service called Taylor Oil Company. From then on he began supplying farmers and service shops in Eastern Nebraska and Western Iowa. Taylor’s has shifted from being the typical convenience store to being a “Quik Market” that has your everyday needs. Taylor’s Pizza, the in-house curated pizza, is in 14 locations to date, as well as burgers, wings, and other grab and go selections. The latest addition, Taylor’s Fried Chicken, has been added to select locations. Taylor’s believes in rural communities being the backbone of America and wants to be considered the home for many!

What We Stand For

Community First

We’re local. We live here. We hire here. And we’re committed to giving our customers the kind of service you only get from people who know your name.

Respect + Hard Work

Our business has been built on grit, character, and treating people right.

Modern Convenience, Old-School Values

We continue to grow and modernize — but never at the expense of the personal, family-run feel that made us who we are.

Quality Fuel + Fresh Food

From dependable fueling to fresh-made food like our own Taylor’s Pizza and Chicken, we put care into everything we offer.

What you’ll Find At Taylor’s

Our Customer Experience

  • Clean, friendly, well-run stores

  • High-quality fuel

  • Fresh food, snacks, and drinks (including our in-house pizza brand)

Easily one of the best stops for gas and refreshments off I-80. Clean, lots of food and beverage options, cheaper gas compared to other stations in the area, and they even have Tesla Superchargers! It’s quiet, not overcrowded, and yet it’s conveniently located right by the Interstate. And who can beat that quaint red barn roof?

“The store looks great smells nice and the food is usually fresh and hot and delicious. Gas pumps and parking lot are clean and the restrooms are clean. And I’m pretty sure this is the only place around town that still has a soft serve ice-cream machine anymore.”
