Michelin Americas Truck Tires and Love’s Travel Stops announced the opening of the 25th truck tire service center under a joint venture between the two companies announced in May 2008. The new location is in Memphis, Tenn., and according to the announcement two more locations – one in Magnolia, Miss., and one in Lake Havasu, Ariz. – are expected to open soon.
“Since we began offering Michelin tires, emergency roadside assistance and on-site tire care service at our travel stops last year, the response from customers has been very positive,” said Frank Love, president of Love’s Operating Companies. “Our customers are discovering this new service while taking advantage of the value and convenience we provide.”
With its 25 new truck tire care service locations, Love’s has provided more than 6,000 hours of training to their certified truck tire care employees. Love’s now provides on-site truck tire care service along the following corridors:
“Love’s has earned a reputation of excellence in delivering much needed products and services for the over-the-road customers,” said Guy Pekle, vice president of replacement sales, Michelin Americas Truck Tires. “Their commitment to providing outstanding service to the trucking community mirrors that of Michelin, which makes this partnership very attractive for truckers coast-to-coast.”
