Love’s surpasses 650 locations with two new openings

New travel stops in Kansas and Mississippi add 206 truck parking spaces and 270 jobs.

Love’s has reached 650 locations with the openings of its newest travel stops in Kansas and Mississippi.

This milestone is part of the company’s expansion strategy announced at the beginning of the year, in which it detailed a 25-store expansion for its 60th anniversary. The new facilities are located in Wichita and Hattiesburg, adding a total of 206 truck parking spaces and 270 jobs for the communities.

The Wichita travel stop is one of the company’s largest stores to date and helps meet a big need for truck parking and other pro driver services in the Wichita metro area. In addition to Love’s Fresh Kitchen with food offerings prepared daily, this location includes an Arby’s and Dunkin’ Donuts.

The Hattiesburg travel stop also features facilities of both foodservice chains and adds pro driver services to an area previously without a national travel stop presence.

In honor of the grand opening of these travel stops, Love’s will donate $5,000 each to Atwater Neighborhood Resource Center in Wichita and United Way of Southeast Mississippi in Hattiesburg.
