Love's Travel Stops to Invest Over $1 Billion in Updating 200 Locations in Next 5 Years

Meadow Lark Companies is proud to partner with Love's Travel Stops to offer our drivers fuel discounts, making Love's an essential stop for our fleet. With the Strategic Remodel Initiative underway, our drivers can look forward to an even better travel experience at Love's locations, including more amenities, updated services, and a modern look and feel.

As Love's invests over $1 billion in upgrading 200 locations, Meadow Lark drivers can benefit from the newly added open-kitchen concepts, multiple restaurant options, updated Love's Truck Care and Speedco locations, and dog parks, making Love's a one-stop-shop for all their needs.

Randy Swain, Director of Construction and Remodels for Love's, said, "Investing in existing locations is another way Love's prioritizes creating a first-class experience for customers. Being strategic with how we update existing locations – and keeping them open during the process – strengthens Love's commitment to getting customers back on the road quickly."

Love's Strategic Remodel Initiative will identify which locations will be updated based on foot traffic, sales, and store age. The company is already working on updating locations in El Paso, Texas, and Columbia, Tennessee, among others.

In addition to the Strategic Remodel Initiative, Love's plans to open 25 new locations in 2023 and will invest about $1 billion in new and remodeled locations in 2023, adding amenities and services to maintain its commitment to safe, clean, and well-maintained locations.

The convenience of Love's Travel Stops coupled with the fuel discounts we offer our drivers will ensure that our fleet can hit the road with confidence, knowing they have the support and amenities they need to get the job done. As a company committed to providing top-tier service to our drivers, Meadow Lark is excited to partner with Love's Travel Stops and be a part of this groundbreaking initiative that will revolutionize the travel experience for millions of travelers on the road.
