Gulf Oil Partners with FinCo

Gulf Oil International recently announced a new partnership with FinCo to cover the distribution of Gulf lubricants in the Netherlands and Germany.

"This new partnership forms another key building block in our long-term strategy for the brand and is a very exciting development for Gulf in Europe," said Frank Rutten, Gulf Oil vice president. "FinCo is a dynamic organization, of the sort we have actively been seeking out, and I am very much looking forward to working with them to further boost Gulf's well-established business in the Netherlands."

FinCo is a relatively new, independent company that operates in the storage, trading and distribution of oil and oil-related products in northwest Europe. Based in the Netherlands, FinCo's principals have extensive experience in the lubricant and petroleum markets and have the capacity to use strategic investments to secure access to infrastructure linked to physical oil markets.

"The Gulf brand has a long and successful history in the Netherlands, and FinCo is delighted to now be able to play its part in continuing this success," noted Peter Nohlmans, FinCo director. "We have some ambitious plans and, together with Gulf Oil International, have no doubts that our joint entity will be able to take Gulf on from here and secure an even brighter future for the brand and its products in the Netherlands and in Germany."
