Love's Opens Five New Chester's Locations

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. -- Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores, based here, is opening five new locations with Chester’s. These sites are among those that Love’s acquired from Pilot Travel Centers and Flying J, as a result of their recent merger.

The locations are in Corning, Calif.; Tacoma, Wash.; Des Moines (Clive), Iowa; Oak Creek, Wis.; and Gary, Ind. Being a nationwide restaurant partner of Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores, Chester’s said it was able to offer the flexibility and nimbleness to meet the locations’ foodservice needs during the transition period.

"We are excited to catapult the brand forward through growth with Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores. Their motto of Clean Places, Friendly Faces meshed with Chester’s Fresh Fried Chicken makes it a welcome stop on the freeway system," James Venable, vice president, operations for Chester’s, said in a statement.
