Mac’s Milk switching to Circle K and Esso

Branding of the Mac’s Milk outlets in Canada has been taking place across the country, and is now underway in Espanola.

This 24-hour confectionary store and gas bar on Centre Street switched over to Esso this week and the new signage is up indicating the shift to Circle K.

Alimentation Couche-Tard acquired Mac’s in Quebec in 1993 and six years later, bought the remaining 980 Mac’s, Mike’s Mart and Becker’s stores.

Mac’s Milk Ltd. was founded in 1961 by Ontario businessmen Ken and Carl McGowen and the name changed to Mac’s Convenience Stores in 1975.

The rebranding also means the introduction of new products, including its house brand coffee, across its network of convenience stores.
