Pilot Company is an American petroleum corporation based in Knoxville, Tennessee. Founded in 1958 by James Haslam Jr., it began as a single gasoline station and has since grown into a major operator of travel centers and convenience stores across the United States and Canada. The company operates over 800 locations, focusing on providing fuel and convenience products.

Pilot Company specializes in fuel retailing, offering gasoline and diesel for both passenger vehicles and commercial trucks. Its travel centers cater to long-haul truck drivers and travelers, providing fuel, food, and various amenities.
