Haslam first entered the fueling industry in 1958 with one gas station. Today Pilot Flying J is one of the largest travel center chains in the country with more than 650 locations and about $30 billion in sales in 2011. NATSO members nominate candidates for the award, and NATSO’s executive committee and past Hall of Fame recipients select the winner. Haslam's son, James A. "Jimmy" Haslam III, will present the award during the show.
