LAVAL, Que. -- Alimentation Couche-Tard is retiring the 54-year-old Mac's convenience store brand as it unites under the Circle K banner in most areas of the world.
The change has been in the works for more than two years and follows several acquisitions that have added different brands to the Quebec-based company since its founding in 1980.
"Today we may be a little bit of distant cousins being from different banners and different companies. We think this has an opportunity to have us act more as brothers and sisters," said CEO Brian Hannasch.


And on it goes: Mac's brand is out and Circle K is in, as of May 2017 | CTV News


Okay, hold on, just a minute now.


Let me get this straight.


Mac's Milk is still around?!? Gawd I haven't seen one of those in years! They used to be everywhere.
