Arco to Expand Into 4 New States

Andeavor plans for 150 sites in 5 years

SAN ANTONIO -- In an eastward expansion of the gasoline brand, Andeavor plans to add more than 150 Arco-branded sites in the Dakotas, Wisconsin and Minnesota over the next five years.

The refiner/marketer has three refineries and 19 product supply terminals in the region that will supply the sites. The first Arco-branded locations are expected to open this spring. This will include a mix of not only new sites branded through wholesalers but also rebranded, existing Tesoro stations.

Andeavor’s retail marketing footprint includes more than 3,250 stores with fuel under the Arco, SuperAmerica, Shell, Exxon, Mobil, Tesoro, USA Gasoline and Giant brands. More than 1,500 sites in the United States and Mexico are currently branded ARCO.

“Arco delivers quality, Top Tier gasoline to its customers, and has been a prominent brand on the West Coast for nearly 50 years,” said Mike Morrison, senior vice president of marketing for Andeavor. “Arco is a strong, trusted, quality brand supported by Andeavor, and we are excited for this opportunity to provide consumers with high-quality fuel.”

San Antonio-based Andeavor, formerly known as Tesoro, operates 10 refineries with a combined capacity of about 1.2 million barrels per day in the midcontinent and western United States.
