A reliable BP oil retailer in Sydney
Humble beginnings
Our roots in fuel supply can be traced as far back as 1963 when Jack Simpson and his son Neville opened a mechanical repair and panel beating business in Wentworthville on the Great Western Highway. The workshop was part of a service station known as Star Auto Centre.
Initially, retail fuel sales were a secondary consideration after the panel beating and spraying side of the business as fuel sales at that time only amounted to 30,000 litres per month. However, sales at that small service station grew steadily to an amazing monthly turnover of 1.25 million litres. Petroleum sales became the prime business for the father and son team who turned it into one of the largest fuel sales operations in Sydney at the time.
As a tribute and legacy to Jack Simpson who sadly passed away in 1979, our business name of Jack Simpson Fuel Supplies Pty Ltd has remained unchanged. The operation remains in the capable hands of Jack’s son Neville and grandson Jason who have continued to build upon those strong foundations that were laid in the early 1960s.
Where we are today
When we purchased the fuel depot at Oakville on October 27th 1983, the monthly turnover of the operation was 600,000 litres. Since then, we have expanded into depots at Werrington and Mittagong.
As such, we now annually supply approximately 70 million litres of petroleum-based product to customers all over Sydney. Using, a large fleet of vehicles.
