Parton, no stranger to life on the road after decades touring in her signature bus, emphasized the personal touch behind the project. “I have spent the bulk of my life on the road, and more specifically on a bus,” she said in the announcement. “I believe we will fill a void out there on the highways, all while bringing the heart and soul of Tennessee.”
The Cornersville site will remain operational during renovations, ensuring minimal disruption for drivers on Interstate 65. Looking ahead, this flagship serves as a proof of concept, with plans for additional locations rolling out across Tennessee and potentially nationwide throughout 2026. Features will include state-of-the-art facilities tailored to truckers’ needs, such as ample parking for semis, quick-service eateries with Southern-inspired menus, and retail showcasing local Tennessee products, from artisan crafts to snacks that evoke home.
