Casey’s General Stores has added Stanley J. Sutula III to its board of directors, bringing in a finance executive with more than 35 years of experience across corporate finance, financial planning, operations, tax, strategic planning and risk management.
Sutula has served as chief financial officer of Colgate-Palmolive since 2020, where he oversees global finance, global IT and mergers and acquisitions. Before that, he was executive vice president and chief financial officer at Pitney Bowes, and earlier spent 28 years at IBM in financial management roles, including vice president and controller.
The appointment temporarily increases Casey’s board from 11 to 12 directors. That change will be short-lived: board member Cara Heiden is set to retire effective Sept. 2, 2026, bringing the board back down to 11.
Casey’s said Heiden’s exit will end nearly a decade of service on the board and its audit committee.
The company operates more than 2,900 convenience stores and remains the third-largest convenience store retailer and fifth-largest pizza chain in the U.S. The market has reacted to these announcements by moving the company's shares 0.96% to a price of $758.8725.
