Oklahoma
City, OK – October 2024 / NewsmakerAlert: Love’s
Travel Stops is celebrating more strategic growth of its network in
the Great Plains and Southeast with the opening of new travel stops in
Wichita, Kansas, and Hattiesburg, Mississippi. With the addition of these
locations, Love’s surpasses the milestone of 650 stores during its 60th
anniversary year.
The
Wichita travel stop, located off Interstate 135 at 1504 E. 21st St., is
one of Love’s largest stores to date and helps meet a big need for truck
parking and other pro driver services in the Wichita metro area. This location
adds 122 truck parking spaces and a Speedco truck maintenance shop with
truck wash services, set to open next month. In addition to Love’s Fresh
Kitchen with food offerings prepared daily, this travel stop includes an
Arby’s and Dunkin’ Donuts, national quick service restaurant partners with
more growth opportunities for Love’s.
The
Hattiesburg travel stop off Interstate 59 and Highway 98 at 283 Ira Hudson
Rd. adds 84 truck parking spaces, and like the Wichita location, adds pro
driver services to an area previously without a national travel stop presence.
Located along a major travel corridor to the Gulf Coast and near recreational
attractions such as De Soto National Forest, this store is a strategic
addition for Love’s growing RV network, with six RV hookups, RV dump service,
private showers, Wi-Fi service and more. Love’s food offerings in Hattiesburg
include Love’s Fresh Kitchen and an Arby’s restaurant.
