Partners with Abierto Networks on high-tech upgrade

WESTLAKE, Ohio -- TravelCenters of America has installed 1,000 new digital menu boards at its locations nationwide, through a partnership with Maine-based Abierto Networks.

“We are honored to have been selected by TA Petro to power the in-store digital marketing communications efforts with our technology platform,” said Rick Sales, president of Abierto. “We are very excited to see our technology at work in their stores, helping them educate and motivate their consumers to try delicious new menu items.”
