Parman Energy Group to Acquire Chevron Business from Lube-Tech & Partners
Parman Energy Corporation, now Parman Energy Group, announced its upcoming acquisition of Lube-Tech & Partners’ (Lube-Tech) Chevron branded lubricants business in early March 2018. Under terms of the agreement, Parman Energy Group will acquire most of Lube-Tech’s Chevron-centric customer base. With this arrangement, both Parman Energy Group and Lube-Tech customers will continue to receive the same products and services they receive today, with the same level of uninterrupted customer service and support.
Parman Energy Group’s Upper-Midwest regional headquarters will be located in St. Cloud, MN, with additional distribution locations in Roseville, MN and Des Moines, IA. Parman Energy Group’s employee base will be comprised of Lube-Tech employees, including customer service, sales, drivers and warehouse staff. These Lube-Tech employees will become Parman Energy Group employees in early March 2018. Lube-Tech will continue to directly provide recycling, fuel and equipment products and services to Parman Energy Group customers.
“Lube-Tech is a family-owned company with a mission to make tomorrow a little bit better than today for each other, for our customers, and for our community” says Lube-Tech Chairman, Chris Bame. “Above all, we are proud of the relationships our Lube-Tech family has formed with our customers over the years. As the industry progresses towards more focused supply relationships, our new service arrangement with Parman Energy Group ensures our Chevron customers will have the right team and product offering to take their business performance to the next level.”
“Parman Energy was founded as a family owned business and is now 100% employee owned” says Steve Moore, Parman Energy Group’s President and CEO. “Our entry into the Upper-Midwest market is a key element in Parman’s overall growth strategy, and we look forward to bringing our trademark level of Totally Outrageous Customer Service to our customers there. Parman Energy Group shares Lube-Tech’s values and operating philosophies and is privileged to be able to continue the customer focused service that Lube-Tech customers have come to expect.”
