Tom & Judy Love Net Worth
Tom & Judy Love are American husband-and-wife entrepreneurs who have a net worth of $5 billion. The couple owns Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores, a chain of more than 300 truck stops and convenience stores.
The Loves started Musket Corporation in 1964 with only $5,000 to lease an abandoned station in Watonga, Oklahoma. Within eight years, they opened about 40 gas stations. Because of the gasoline shortage, Tom expanded the business by adding a grocery line to their gas stations.
In 1972, the couple set up the first Love’s Country Store in Guymon, which combined a convenience store and self-service fuel station. The success was growing vastly; therefore Love’s was operating 90 stores across Oklahoma and surrounding states, and it began offering food services.
The couple started the First Love’s Travel Stop on Interstate 40 in Amarillo, Texas, which was one-of-a-kind travel stop serving both truck drivers and the motoring community. In addition to their company, Tom and Judy opened gift and novelties shops. Today, the Love family operates with 300 stores across 39 states.
