SiriCOMM Inc. has announced an agreement with Truckstops Direct Inc. to solicit to its membership SiriCOMM's Wi-Fi service and to resell the company's InTouch (wireless Internet access) service
to highway travelers using their facilities.
Truckstops Direct represents 178 independent truckstops and travel plazas in 44 states. The membership may adopt SiriCOMM's Wi-Fi network installation and resell InTouch service, which is currently available in more than 470 truckstops.
"The agreement with Truckstops Direct is important because it provides another avenue for SiriCOMM to continue its network expansion and sales of InTouch service," said David Mendez, executive vice president, SiriCOMM Inc. "Engaging the ‘independent’ truckstops is a win-win for both organizations and the highway transportation industry as a whole."
Paul Rogers, Truckstops Direct CEO said, "Our agreement with SiriCOMM provides an excellent platform for our membership to be a part of the country's largest public Wi-Fi network offering services specifically to the highway transportation industry." He continued, "SiriCOMM's InTouch service provides a substantial means for our members to increase revenue at their stores through Internet sales as well as keeping the drivers at the facilities longer to purchase more products and services."
