About Our Cooperative

Farmers Union Oil Company is your locally owned cooperative since 1955.

What is a Cooperative (Co-Op)?
A Cooperative is a business owned, collectively, by its members who share the benefits. The Co-op's purpose is to provide its customers with products, marketing assistance or services.

While Cooperatives have much in common with other businesses, there are some differences. Profits, which in our industry are known as "savings" (i.e. money left over each year, after the costs of business needs is met) are returned to the customer. At least 40% of these savings are returned in cash and the balance returned in stock certificates. Stock certificates are retired with cash at age 70.

We take great pride in ensuring a positive overall customer experience while maintaining competitive pricing throughout all of our departments at Farmers Union Oil Company.
