Thank You

Truckers Paradise was founded with a simple but powerful belief: truck drivers deserve to be treated like royalty. Every day, truckers make incredible sacrifices — spending long stretches away from family, facing life-threatening hazards, and enduring health challenges — all to keep our country moving forward.

Despite our passion and dedication, unexpected delays and cost overruns created challenges that could not be overcome. The landlord acted appropriately when the company was unable to meet its obligations.

We are deeply grateful for the support and encouragement we’ve received from the Gainesville community, local businesses, and the many people who believed in the vision of Truckers Paradise. Your kindness, understanding, and enthusiasm meant the world to us.

I also want to express my sincere appreciation to the leaders of the City of Gainesville, who consistently demonstrated professionalism and excellence. I remain hopeful for the continued growth and success of the mall and the entire Gainesville area.

Most importantly, I want to thank every trucker who stopped by, shared a story, or reminded us why this dream mattered. Hearing how Truckers Paradise made an impact on your lives has been the greatest reward of all.

— Dean Ash, CEO
