Themed "Journey Together," our Store Leadership Conference inspired store leaders to embody the journey maker spirit and build on our people-first culture. Through sessions on continuous improvement, hospitality and more, we reaffirmed our shared purpose: to show people they matter at every turn.

Today we are exploring one of our Knoxville support center campuses. This is just one of our many Pilot campuses spread across seven different cities. Thanks for watching, and comment below which campus we should tour next!

Big congratulations to James "Jim" Tench for being named Alberta Motor Transport Association's 2024 Driver of the Year! With 40 years on the road and 16 of those hauling fuel with Pilot Flying J, Jim truly sets the standard for excellence. This marks the 2nd year in a row a Pilot driver has earned this honor. Well done, Jim!

What an incredible weekend at the Covenant Races in downtown Knoxville! We loved seeing so many of our amazing team members representing Pilot whether they were running or watching from the sidelines. Thanks to everyone who showed up!

Pilot’s new flagship travel center in Stanton, Tennessee, is here! Spanning over 20,000 square feet, this location is now the largest travel center in Pilot’s network and features a bolder brand-forward design, a guest-focused layout with inviting spaces and expanded fresh food offerings. The design of this location will inspire future projects throughout 2025 as Pilot continues to modernize and test new concepts. https://lnkd.in/ei-nt8Fk

Pilot recently hosted a Holi celebration, giving the team a chance to come together, enjoy colorful activities, and connect with one another. Thank you to everyone who joined and helped make it a success. The event was a meaningful way to recognize Holi's themes of renewal and unity.

To celebrate International Women's History Month, Pilot organized a team gathering to celebrate the incredible women who are such an important part of our organization. A big thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the event a success. It was a great chance to reflect on the amazing contributions women bring to our team and to show our appreciation for their impact both here and beyond.

At Pilot, we believe in showing people they matter at every turn and that each of us has a role to play in making a lasting impact in the communities we call home. That’s why we’re thrilled to share that our CEO, Adam Wright, has joined the Board of Trustees for Emerald Youth Foundation. Based in our hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee, Emerald Youth Foundation has been transforming the lives of young people through education, mentorship and faith-based development. 

Adam’s commitment to Emerald Youth reflects his personal values and reinforces our belief that together, we can make meaningful differences in the places we live and work.

Electric Vehicle (EV) charging is now available at more than 130 locations in over 25 states. Our travel centers have EV drivers’ backs as they look to hit the road this spring and summer travel season. In collaboration with GM Energy and EVgo, we are continuing to connect major travel corridors and offer EV drivers access to convenient fast charging with premium amenities, like lounges, free Wi-Fi, on-site restaurants and grab-and-go food and beverage options. With modernized restrooms, round-the-clock team members and 24/7 access, drivers can recharge comfortably and get back on the road quickly. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/eWZ2_HcC.

Recently, we celebrated the grand opening of our new North Peters office space! This space is not only stunning but brings our Knoxville energy team together under one roof. Shoutout to all the incredible teams who made this move happen—we couldn’t have done it without you. Here’s to new beginnings in a space built for collaboration and growth!
