 PROFILE
Pilot has been known to offer a salve to those suffering from white-line fever. Catering to truckers and travelers alike, Pilot operates about 140 travel centers in 36 states, all of which feature one or more national food chains, including Subway, Dairy Queen, Wendy's, Arby's, TJ Cinnamons, and Taco Bell. Pilot features fuel islands large enough to service several 18-wheelers at a time and private showers for its customers. Pilot also operates more than 65 convenience stores in Tennessee and Virginia. James Haslam II got Pilot off the ground in 1958 as a gas station that sold cigarettes and soft drinks; now his son, CEO James Haslam III, pilots the firm. The Haslam family owns the company.
