Petroleum Marketers Association of America

The Petroleum Marketers Association of America (PMAA) is a federation of state and regional trade associations. PMAA member associations represent independent petroleum marketers.[1] Independent petroleum marketers are not Big Oil but rather are small independent retailers that sell heating oil, gasoline and related products and services.

Based in Arlington, Northampton County, Virginia, PMAA works to represent the business interests of its member associations before Congress, regulatory agencies and other Federal Government entities. PMAA represents its members by running an annual 'Day on The Hill' event, publishing PMAA Journal and operating a Political Action Committee called The PMAA Small Business Committee[2] PMAA holds its annual meeting each year at the National Association of Convenience Store's Annual Trade Show[3] call NACSShow.

PMOCO:

In addition to representing marketers needs in Washington, D.C., PMAA holds a majority interest in PMOCO, LLC. PMOCO is a for profit LLC whose mission is to own and operate a national retailing brand called the Spirit® Petroleum.[4] Formed in 2002, Spirit Brand gasoline and convenience stores now operate coast-to-coast.
