History

Roady's Truck Stops was founded on January 1, 2007, when Great Savings Network and TruckStops Direct merged.[2] Great Savings Network was a marketing group that worked with independent truck stops. TruckStops Direct was established in 1994 to strengthen the relationship between truck stops and trucking companies. The Roady's Truck Stop network allows independent truck stop facilities to leverage corporate buying power to get maximum return.

The founders are Scott Moscrip and Kelly Rhinehart. Both are now retired.[3]
