January 16th, 2018

A survey of retailers released last month by the National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS) highlighted positive overall sales at convenience stores in 2017 and optimism for 2018.

Healthy foods and beverage sales drove food service sales last year with almost 70 % of convenience retailers citing foodservice sales increases.

Convenience stores, which sell an estimated 80% of the fuel purchased in the United States, also realized increased gasoline sales – over 50% of retailers noted fuel sales increases in 2017.

The NACS Consumer Survey also identified strong consumer optimism over economic prospects, noting that there appeared to be a direct correlation between our customers’ view of the economy and their use of disposable income in our marketplace.

Over 100 companies participated in the December 2017 NACS Retailer Sentiment Survey which tracks retailer sentiment related to their businesses, the industry and the economy.

ExxonMobil Enters Mexico’s New Deregulated Fuel Market

December 12th, 2017

Taking advantage of Mexico’s new deregulated fuel market, ExxonMobil has announced the opening of the first eight branded stations targeted in Queretaro, a state in the Bajio region of central Mexico. 

ExxonMobil plans to open as many as 50 Mobil-branded sites in Mexico’s Bajio region by the end of first-quarter 2018.

Under a new partnership agreement, the stores will be operated by retailer Grupo Orsan.

The new ExxonMobil sites in Mexico will offer Synergy-branded fuels – marketed as Mobil Synergy Supreme+, Mobil Synergy Extra and Mobil Synergy Diesel.

ExxonMobil’s Texas refineries will supply the gasoline and diesel for the locations, distributed by rail to terminals in San Luis Potosi and San Jose Iturbide.
 
“The opening of these first eight Mobil service stations, made possible by Mexico’s new energy policy regime, is a significant milestone for the country and our company,” said Carlos Rivas, fuels director for ExxonMobil Mexico. “We look forward to helping meet the country’s growing demand for energy with a reliable supply of high-quality fuels and a positive customer experience.”

Several gasoline brands familiar to the U.S. are entering the recently deregulated Mexican market, including Shell, which recently opened a new station in September near Mexico City as part of a 10-year, $1 billion investment in the market.
