What Our Franchisees Are Saying:
Qualities of a Successful Franchisee
A great franchise location starts with a sophisticated travel center operator, who is ready to uphold the reputation of the TA brands. An ideal facility would serve highway traffic not currently covered in our nationwide network. We’re looking for financially healthy businesses, with owners who are ready to maximize the benefits of participating in TA’s corporate programs.
This is a relationship that’s built to last. Many of our franchise partnerships last for decades, with franchisees opting in for multiple franchise agreements.
Financial Requirements:
Depending on the size of the facility and amenities offered, financial obligations for opening a travel center franchise location vary. Interested in opening multiple locations? We offer incentives for multi-site franchisees.
