Starting a Fuel Card business- Help

[Robbo]

Having worked within the oil industry for 5 years a few years ago i have decided to start my own business.
Selling diesel cards to haulage/courier companies or anyone with a diesel vehicle(s). It works out about 4-6p litre cheaper than the pump prices. I can provide fuel cards for Total ,BP, Texaco and UK Fuels networks.

If anyone knows any owner drivers / haulage / transport people let me know and i might be able to save them some money

I'm also looking for somesort of database of companies with diesel vehicles. any business directories out there on disk or to download would be great. I used Thompson business search Pro a few years ago. If anyone can sort that out I'd be over the moon.

Cheers
Robbo

Think you'll find there's a lot of competition out there mate, we get on average 10calls per week from different companys offering fuel cards. But good luck to you anyway

I run a fleet of 30 vehicles (which run on derv) and also have some plant too (gas oil) but we bulk buy weekly (between 10k-12k litres and 2k-4k litres respectively) and have our own storage tanks. Because none of our transport is long-haul we have no need for fuel cards. As pointed out there is already quite a lot of companies doing this so best of luck.
