"We Got It" is the corporate philosophy of United Oil Co., based in Gardena, Calif. All of the company’s stores are located in Southern California, and a large portion of them have a unique, modern appearance and décor.
In July 2014, affiliates of Fortress Investment Group of New York acquired United Oil. They formed a new company, CF United LLC, which will be the parent of United Oil.
The new leadership team is making investments in technology and infrastructure to ready itself for growth. It plans to keep the United Oil brand and wants to continue to grow with the Shell, Phillips 66 (76) and Valero fuel brands. As a result of the sale, the stores will get a new brand to replace "We Got It!"
