In a national survey compiled by MarketBeat.com, Nevadans revealed which brands they most wish would open in the Silver State.
MarketBeat surveyed 3,011 people nationwide, asking, “Which brand do you most wish your state had ~ but currently doesn’t?” The results show that Casey’s General Store tops the list for Nevada.
Popular across the Midwest, Casey’s is known for gas, convenience items, and made-from-scratch pizza that has developed a cult following.
Travelers from Iowa or Missouri often mention grabbing a slice at Casey’s, leaving Nevada drivers wondering why the combination of fuel and comfort food hasn’t rolled onto local highways yet.
Among the 2 News Nevada newsroom, the love for Casey’s is real. One crew member noted, “Casey’s General Store has the best breakfast pizza on the planet,” prompting another to reply, “THANK YOU! Signed, a fellow Midwesterner!”
Ralphs, the California-based grocery store chain, ranked second in the MarketBeat survey. Known for consistent pricing and fresh produce, Ralphs is familiar to many Nevadans who shop there while visiting nearby cities like Los Angeles or San Diego.
Third on the list is Second & Charles, a bookstore and media chain that combines new and used books, vinyl records, video games, and collectibles. According to MarketBeat’s data, people love the browsing experience, where you might leave with a novel, a vintage record, and a rare board game all at once. Nevadans in Las Vegas, Reno, or Henderson could see it as a community-focused alternative to big-box retail.
MarketBeat also included an interactive map showing the most-desired brands by state, sparking conversation among locals about which out-of-state chains they want to see come closer to home. Have you ever tried a brand elsewhere and wished it would open in Nevada?
