Love’s grows Travel Stops network in four states
The brand inaugurated new locations in Illinois, Ohio, Tennessee, and Texas, which added 290 truck parking spaces and 335 jobs overall.
Love’s Travel Stops is now serving customers in Morris, Illinois; Lancaster, Ohio; Loudon, Tennessee; and Carthage, Texas, thanks to four travel stops that opened recently on the same day. The stores add a combined 290 truck parking spaces and 335 jobs to the communities they’re located in.
The 13,000-14,000 square feet locations are open 24/7 and offer all of the brand’s amenities included in each site throughout the U.S. plus some special restaurant partnerships. Services include RV parking spaces and hookups, apart from standard and truck space, dog parks, Speedco locations, Mobile to Go Zone stores, CAT scales, laundry facilities and showers.
“Opening four locations in one day is no small feat, but our team members are ready to provide customers with clean places and friendly faces in Morris, Lancaster, Loudon and Carthage. With plenty of amenities to choose from at each of our locations, professional drivers and four-wheel customers are sure to get what they need and be back on the road quickly,” said Shane Wharton, President of Love’s.
Partnerships with fast food brands include Hardee's (Morris and Lancaster), Naf-Naf (Morris), Arby's (Loudon), Wendy's and Subway (both in Carthage). Apart from these facilities, the retailer offers its visitors gourmet coffee and branded snacks at its shops.
To honour the grand openings, Love’s will donate $2,000 to nonprofits organisations in each location. The chosen institutions are Panola College in Carthage, Texas; Smoky Mountain Service Dogs in Loudon, Tennessee; Meals on Wheels Fairfield County and Lancaster Fairfield County Charity Newsies in Lancaster, Ohio; and Morris Community High School and Morris City Hall in Morris, Illinois.
