“We’re very eager to join the TravelCenters and TA-Petro network,” said Amin Alibhai. “Being a part of the TravelCenters fueling, truck service and UltraONE loyalty system will help us better serve our customers through fleet fueling and service agreements, while offering the best amenities on the highway. This brand stands for quality and has the trust of professional drivers.”
