Costco Sees Record Fuel Sales After Extending Gas Station Hours
- In April, Costco experienced record-breaking weekly fuel sales in the U.S., marking the highest volumes ever recorded for two separate weeks.

- As of late May 2025, Costco operates over 620 U.S. Locations and about 280 internationally, with more than 700 gas stations globally accessible to members and Shop Card customers.
