    Love’s is celebrating National Hot Dog Day by partnering with Schwab Meat Co. to give customers complimentary hot dogs on Wednesday, July 19. Schwab has supplied smoked meats and roller grill items, including Schwab’s Finest Hot Dogs, to Love’s for more than 40 years. On National Hot Dog Day, Customers can enjoy the popular food for free after showing a barcode at the cash register.

    “Love’s and Schwab have a long-standing partnership of offering quality products in Love’s stores. The two companies wanted to partner in a way that would thank Customers for their loyalty over the years. We’re thankful to have such great partners like Schwab who value our Customers like we do,” said Mark Romig, director of merchandise for Love’s.

    Customers can access the barcode for their free hot dog or roller grill item on Love’s official Facebook, Twitter or Instagram pages from 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, July 19. Customers can redeem one coupon per transaction at participating locations in 41 states.

    In addition, truck-parking spaces, showers and other driver services are now available in new parts of Mississippi and Ohio. Love’s Travel Stops opened two new locations in West Point, MS, and Circleville, OH. The West Point travel stop is at the intersection of U.S. Highway 45A and Lagoon Road, and the Circleville store is at the intersection of U.S. Highway 23 and Pittsburg Road.

    “Both new Love’s Travel Stops are along busy freight corridors,” said Greg Love, co-CEO of Love’s. “West Point is ideal because of its location along U.S. Highway 45A between the growing areas of Mississippi’s Golden Triangle region of Starkville, Tupelo and Columbus. It will also provide service to professional drivers using the Yokohama Tire Plant in West Point. The Circleville store is an ideal stop for drivers thanks to its location along U.S. Highway 23 running through southern Ohio, and its proximity to Ohio’s state capital. We look forward to providing drivers with the ‘Clean Places, Friendly Faces’ Love’s is known for at these locations.”

    Both stores are open 24/7 and offer showers, gourmet coffee, fresh fruit and vegetables, name-brand snacks, fountain drinks and more. The West Point store has an Arby’s restaurant, five showers and 67 truck-parking spaces. The Circleville store offers an IHOP Express restaurant, seven showers, 101 truck-parking spaces and a Love’s Truck Tire Care center. West Point marks Love’s 13th location in Mississippi, and Circleville is the company’s 12th location in Ohio.
