What TotalGas does
TotalGas is a privately held Mexican fuel retailer that operates a network of 38 gas stations across seven cities — anchored by 26+ stations in Ciudad Juárez with additional locations in Ahumada, Delicias, Parral, Praxedis G. Guerrero, Aguascalientes, and San Miguel de Allende. The company traces its origins to 1930 and remains under family ownership, with Enrique López Garciglia serving as Director General. It sells TOPTIER-certified gasoline in two grades (T-MÁXIMA 87 octane and T-SUPER 92 octane) plus ultra-low-sulfur diesel (UBA), and layers on a proprietary fuel additive branded TotalPower that is positioned around improved combustion, injector efficiency, extended engine life, and lower CO2 emissions.
The company runs two complementary go-to-market motions. On the consumer side, TotalGas serves individual vehicle owners through its owned retail station network with multi-format payment acceptance (cash, credit/debit, TotalGas Card, NFC) and the 'Litros Exactos Siempre' exact-liter guarantee supported by an on-demand pump calibration verification. On the B2B side, TotalGas operates ControlGas, a proprietary fleet management platform that allows fleet operators to enroll vehicles via TotalGas Cards with PIN authentication or NFC vehicle-identification stickers; the platform handles consumption monitoring, billing, and administrative control across credit, debit, and autoconsumo (self-consumption) modalities, and is sold through field-sales outreach to enterprise and mid-market fleet operators.
Revenue is generated primarily through transactional retail fuel margins across the station network, supplemented by recurring fleet-management service fees and TotalPower additive sales at the pump. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; fleet contracts are quote-based with monthly billing tied to consumption volume, while consumer pricing is run-rate plus recurring promotional levers such as a $1 peso per-liter Tuesday/Wednesday discount and a partnership coupon with Wendy's. Marketing is conducted through the company website, Facebook and Instagram, community events, and brand partnerships, with no disclosed external capital, M&A activity, or third-party investors.

TotalGas competitors and assessment
Company assessmentEmerging players
- Wappa: Mexican fuel-tech and fleet-card platform enabling cross-station fleet fuel acceptance. Comparable to TotalGas's ControlGas / TotalGas Card as a fleet fuel management solution, though operating as a network-agnostic technology layer rather than a station owner.
Direct peers
- ARKO (G700 / One Stop): Mexican regional fuel and convenience retail network with stations across multiple states. Comparable to TotalGas as a Mexican-headquartered branded fuel retailer pursuing multi-region station growth alongside TotalPower-style additive differentiation.
- Oxxo Gas: Femsa-owned retail gas station chain operating across Mexico with hundreds of locations, often co-located with Oxxo convenience stores. Directly competes with TotalGas in retail gasoline and convenience services, with much greater national scale.
- Circle K México: Couche-Tard's branded convenience and fuel retail network across Mexico. Comparable to TotalGas as a multi-site fuel-plus-convenience retailer offering branded fuel quality, payment flexibility, and consumer loyalty promotions.
- 7-Eleven México: Operates a network of branded gas stations in Mexico typically co-located with convenience stores. Comparable to TotalGas in combining retail fuel with convenience-oriented cross-selling at the forecourt.
Broad incumbents
- Repsol México: Spanish multinational with a branded retail fuel presence in Mexico, including a Repsol-branded station operated within TotalGas's own footprint. Comparable as a branded international fuel retailer competing for the same Mexican consumer and fleet customer.
- Shell México: Global fuel major with branded stations across Mexico, including loyalty and fleet card programs. Comparable to TotalGas as a multi-national branded fuel retailer pursuing both consumer and B2B fleet customers in the same Mexican geography.
- Pemex (Petróleos Mexicanos): Mexico's state-owned oil company and dominant fuel retailer with thousands of branded stations nationwide. Directly comparable to TotalGas as the incumbent all Mexican retail fuel operators must compete against on pricing, network density, and fleet programs.
- BP México: Global integrated oil major with branded retail stations in Mexico. Comparable to TotalGas in offering TOPTIER-grade fuels, loyalty programs, and fleet cards targeting Mexican consumers and B2B fleet accounts.
- Mobil México (Mobil Stations): ExxonMobil's branded retail station network in Mexico. Comparable as a multi-national branded fuel retailer with fuel quality differentiation, fleet card programs, and broad station coverage that competes with TotalGas for consumer and fleet wallet share.
