HISTORY:
Radio Oil Co., Inc. started
in business in 1922 in Worcester, MA with an oil storage plant and a fillin' station
located at 207 Grafton S
treet. As a distributor for the Penn Valley
Refinery and the Amalie Refining Company, Radio Oil grew quickly and became known for
quality products and dependable service. The company continued to grow through the
1930s and 1940s. In 1951, having outgrown the Grafton Street facility, Radio
Oil purchased a bulk petroleum plant from Esso (Exxon) which was located at 34 Albany
Street in Worcester.
Radio Oil has always
recognized that good customer and supplier relations are of the utmost importance. During
the oil crises of the 1970s the company had an opportunity to prove that. Even
during periods of oil and gasoline rationing, none of our customers ran out.
During this period Radio Oil
was one of a very few dealers that had ample supply of product because of good relations
with their suppliers.
In 1990, Radio Oil introduced
its Black Gold program - a unique way for our customers to lock in a ceiling price
for their heating oil requirements. This program and a high level of personal service has
helped Radio Oil double its business in recent years.
Commercial business is an
important part of who we are. All through its long history Radio Oil has put a strong
emphasis on developing and maintaining a large volume of commercial business. We prefer to
sell only top quality fuels and lubricants, because our good reputation stands behind
every drop we sell.
Thirty Four Albany Street is still home
to Radio Oil today. We have storage f
or over 175,000 gallons of petroleum products
at this site, and now operate a second lubricant warehouse nearby.
