Fuel Dealers in the US

The industry comprises dealers that supply gasoline, diesel, coal and other heating and vehicular fuels to households and businesses. Most industry revenue is derived from heating oil and propane sales for home heating purposes. During harsh winters, households and businesses will purchase more heating oil and propane, driving demand for fuel and increasing industry revenue. Moreover, industry fuel prices raise dealers' purchase costs when oil and natural gas prices rise. Given that demand for heating oil and propane is inflexible in the short term, fuel dealers can pass on much of these costs to downstream customers, increasing industry revenue and preserving the average industry profit margin.

This industry sells heating oil, propane and other fuels directly to end users. Related companies also deliver heating oil, propane and other fuels, such as autogas and kerosene, to domestic and commercial premises.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
