us better serve our customers through fleet fueling and service
agreements, while offering the best amenities on the highway. Our
high operational standards align perfectly with TravelCenters,” he
added.
With years of experience in owning and managing convenience
stores and other retail establishments, Mr. Ali adds the TA Express
travel center to his other business ventures. This new TA will be
