2026 Lighting Audit coming to a close

The Lighting Audit portion of the Cenex® Retail Excellence Daily (RED) Site Assessment Program will conclude on March 1, 2026.

To pass the evaluation, all scored questions must be marked as correct. Please note that STAR Store status can only be achieved if the Lighting Audit is successfully passed before the Brand Standard Audit begins on June 1. Additionally, the Brand Standard Audit cannot be passed until all Lighting Audit failures have been corrected. Any lost points may be recovered through the cure process until September 30.

If you have any questions about the RED Site Assessment Program, please contact your Cenex representative or cenexmysteryshop@chsinc.com.
