Brothers Oil Company
East Hartford, Connecticut

Brothers Oil Company was founded in 1978 when two brothers recognized the need for a more affordable, full service alternative to the fuel oil providers of the day. At the time, the average price per gallon for heating oil was well below $1.00 and would be for some years to come. This allowed many retailers to charge excessively higher prices per gallon. Consumers had little incentive to take notice of whether or not they were paying too much for heating oil or diesel fuel delivery. Seeing that the long-term price trend for heating oil was rising, and that excessive rates per gallon were not a true representation of the costs of doing business, Brothers Oil Company began offering full service at discount prices. Year after year, as oil prices rose and consumers became more and more aware, Brothers steadily grew. Our growth continues today, at an even faster rate, amidst record price levels in energy costs. We first began advertising our daily oil price on our trucks and in our office locations. In keeping with that tradition, we now offer our daily retail pricing for heating oil on our website. Brothers is proud of the benchmark we've helped to define for down-to-earth pricing on fuel delivery. We've done so while providing the pinnacle of quality, dependable service and a full portfolio of contracts and programs to our customers. Today, Brothers remains family-owned and locally-operated. We've resisted recent consolidation trends in the industry by larger, non-local companies. Following such trends would only raise our costs and "de-personalize" the service we offer our customers. As families and businesses throughout the Greater Hartford area continue to seek the best value to serve their fuel delivery and heating service needs, Brothers Oil will continue to provide it. We look forward to another 30 years of service to our communities.
