Business Details
Consists of three businesses: direct operation of Service Stations (SS), wholesale and direct sales of petroleum products (Petroleum Trading Business Division), and Used Car Sales & Auto Body Repair Business. While centering on stable fuel oil supply to local residents and corporations, the company is promoting expansion of non-fuel revenue such as coating, vehicle inspection, car sales, and car rental. The merchandise sales division also handles new products such as Gomnet. The business structure is significantly affected by crude oil prices, subsidy policies, and fuel demand trends.
Recent Overview
Revenue declined due to reduced sales network, but cost review and solid margin maintenance drove profit growth.
In FY2026 (ending March 2026), the Petroleum Business recorded revenue of ¥1,738 million and operating income of ¥101 million, a decrease in revenue but an increase in profit year-on-year. The SS Business Division saw declines in both sales volume and revenue, but profit increased due to improvement in non-fuel revenue. The Petroleum Trading Business Division saw a decline in sales volume due to aging facilities of in-tank users and other factors, but secured profit growth through solid maintenance of fuel margin due to continued subsidies and review of selling, general and administrative expenses. Reduction of the sales network (SS closures) and resource efficiency through centralization of personnel contributed to improvement of the profit structure.
