Who We Are

At Love's, we're passionate about providing friendly service and clean, modern facilities stocked with the fuel, food, and supplies drivers need to keep them going. We were founded on this idea in 1964, and it remains our guiding principle more than 40 years later: "Clean Places, Friendly Faces".

Today, Love's operates two main types of facilities. Love's Country Stores are fueling stations with an attached convenience store. The larger Love's Travel Stops are located on interstate highways and offer additional amenities such as food from national restaurant chains like Subway, Arby's, and Carl's Jr., as well as trucking supplies, showers, and RV dump stations.

Love's has been at the forefront of the convenience store and travel center industry for more than three decades. We were among the first to combine self-service gasoline with grocery items, offer fresh deli sandwiches, add quick-service restaurants, and sell gift and novelty items. Today, we continue that spirit of innovation by adding Truck Tire Care centers and roadside assistance to our Travel Stops.


How We Started

The Love's story started in 1964, when Tom and Judy Love opened a single gas station in far western Oklahoma. A few short years later, Love’s opened its first convenience store in Guymon, Oklahoma. In 1981, Love’s launched its first travel stop in Amarillo, Texas. Since then, Love’s chain of convenience stores and travel centers has expanded rapidly to more than 290 locations in more than 39 states nationwide.

What We Value

At Love's, family values go beyond our name. We care about our employees, our customers and the communities in which they live. Our stores across the country contribute to local nonprofits every year, and the corporate office in Oklahoma City donates at least two percent of net profits to local charities. Each September we raise money for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. In 14 years, this campaign has raised more than $6 million, benefitting 89 member hospitals nationwide.


What Sets Us Apart

The Love's difference is a dedication to treating others like they are family. Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores is family-owned and operated. Founder Tom Love, along with children Frank Love, president and COO, Greg Love, President of Love’s development companies, and Jenny Love Meyer, vice president of communications, all remain actively involved in the day-to-day operations of the company.
