New Stores, Remodels On The Horizon For Pilot Travel Centers

Pilot Travel Centers effort to expand in the coming months includes plans to open new travel centers while also remodeling other locations across its network.

The company’s 2024 growth plan includes building 10 new travel centers to increase the company’s presence in several states, bringing additional services, amenities and more than 500 truck parking spaces to the road. Also, 25 dealer locations are expected to join the network.

“Expanding into new communities and enhancing our services remains a key part of our long-term strategy,” said Allison Cornish, senior vice president of store modernization and development at Pilot Travel Centers LLC. “We continually evaluate our network with our guests’ needs in mind and are making significant investments in our travel centers to provide drivers an exceptional experience at every stop along their journey.”

In 2023, the company opened 10 new travel centers and welcomed more than 20 dealer locations to its network. The new stores were located along major routes in key markets, including Yucca and Ash Fork, Az.; Colton and Rialto, Calif.; Gallup, N.M.; McCarran, Nev; Edon, Ohio; Holladay, Tenn; Odessa, Tex; and Wamsutter, Wyo.

As part of its New Horizons initiative, Pilot Travel Centers has plans to overhaul an additional 75 locations this year for a total of nearly 200 completed remodels since launching the program in 2022. These major enhancements include curb-to-counter makeovers with refreshed restrooms and showers, new kitchens, expanded food and beverage options and updated technology.
