Petroleum Traders focuses on being the number one wholesale diesel and gasoline fuel supplier to the continental United States and does not import or export fuels outside of the United States like some other wholesale suppliers. We offer turnkey wholesale diesel fuel and wholesale gasoline fuel service at levels that separate us from the other wholesale diesel and wholesale gasoline suppliers across the nation.
 
We provide discount fuel to commercial, government, and wholesale customers of all sizes.  Commercially, we service the trucking, construction, railroad, mining, and manufacturing industries as well as utilities and private fleets.  In the public sector, we are both a contract and spot supplier to government agencies of all types, mass transit, and school boards.  Our shipping and supply strength also allow us to provide savings to wholesale jobbers, hypermarketers, and other unbranded retailers
 
We offer a full range of pricing programs, including floating index references (such as OPIS), firm prices, caps, collars, and fuel swaps.  We compliment our leading edge price programs with dispatch and tank monitoring services that are unmatched in our industry.
 
By combining large national supply strength with local proactive service, Petroleum Traders Corporation is the perfect 'hybrid" supplier.  Contact us today and let one of our customer service representatives tell you more about the value we can create for your firm.

05/26/2009 - Has The Economy Really Improved?
As the Dow Jones rebounds from approximately 6,500 to 8,200, many Americans ask themselves "has the economy really improved?" Unemployment rates do not suggest so, as they continue to rise. Many financial experts suggest that the worst is yet to come, and that the 3rd quarter of 2009 will be the real proving ground for which companies will pull through this recession. Big automotive may set the tone for other industries poised for downfall, to include the manufacturers, distributors, and carriers that support those industries. As the number of unknown economic variables grow, you have the ability to have absolute control over one critical variable - your price. In 2008, Southwest Airlines was one of the most noted Airlines in news articles because of their decision to control their fuel costs long before the peak we saw in the summer of 2008. Hedging fuel prices is not about knowing what will happen, it's about knowing what has happened in the past (combined with what could happen), and taking action on that knowledge.

01/19/2009 - Petroleum Prices Continue to Fall
Petroleum prices continue to fall. Distributors' exposure to both accounts receivable and aggregate bad debt dollar potential are also falling. Conversely, bad debt exposure in the overall market place continues to rise. SemFuels, Flying J and Lyondell are three large oil industry bankruptcy filings. Interest rates in theory are down, unless you have come to the end of an expiring term loan, in which case the rates are rising significantly. Unemployment continues to rise. The amount of quality unemployed is also rising. The opportunity to add new staff for significant growth is present. Fuel supply, fuel sales, fuel paper management (Trading) positions are available within our firm. Petroleum Traders remains a growth company. Contact us if you recognize yourself as a talented and productive professional in any of these areas.
