When the new Love’s Travel Stop opened today, Nov. 10, in South Holland, Illinois, it was something of a milestone: it was the Oklahoma City-based chain’s 400th store.
New Love’s opens in South Holland, IllinoisThe latest Love’s comes amidst a busy year of expansion. So far in 2016, the company says it has opened 37 locations and added 2,200 new truck parking spaces in 15 states. They add that they are “… on track to round out 2016 by adding 50 new stores, which will be the most locations opened in a single year in Love’s history.”
Love’s store in South Holland is located on I-94 at Exit 73B. It features:
- a Hardee’s restaurant
- 88 truck-parking spaces
- seven showers
- a Love’s Truck Tire Care facility
“As we’ve expanded, we’ve tried to step up our level of overall highway hospitality,” said Greg Love, co-CEO of Love’s. “In addition to adding more stores, we’ve also looked at other ways we can help our customers. That evaluation has resulted in expanding our tire care services, offering factoring services, a growing hotel business and more. Reaching 400 locations is just one of many more milestones we hope to achieve.”
