TEXAS PETROLEUM GROUP, LLC

What TEXAS PETROLEUM GROUP, LLC does

Texas Petroleum Group, LLC is a privately held Houston-based company established in 1982 that operates a dual retail-and-wholesale petroleum business concentrated in Texas. The company owns and operates 172+ convenience stores under the Timewise Food Stores brand, selling fuel along with in-store merchandise and convenience foods to retail consumers. As a wholesale distributor, it holds authorization to distribute Shell, Exxon and Mobil branded petroleum products to independent convenience store and grocery store operators across the Texas marketplace, and offers those operators supplementary services including site selection, site layout, equipment procurement, construction support, multi-branding capabilities, and ongoing environmental compliance assistance.

The company's go-to-market combines direct-to-consumer retail through owned Timewise storefronts with a B2B wholesale channel supplying branded fuel to independent operators. Revenue is generated through transactional margins on retail fuel and merchandise sales plus wholesale distribution margins on branded petroleum supply. The company's primary customer segments are Texas retail consumers (end customers) and independent convenience store and grocery store operators (B2B wholesale accounts). The Timewise brand identity is reinforced by internal operational infrastructure including a contractor portal that integrates Titan Cloud for work-order management and Zenput for HSSE/safety compliance documentation.

Texas Petroleum Group describes itself as a "leading wholesale petroleum distributor" of the three major brands in Texas, with 41+ years of operating history and 100+ contracted service providers supporting store and distribution operations. The company is structured as an LLC with no disclosed parent, no external funding rounds, and no public listing. Its operations are geographically constrained to Texas with no stated international or out-of-state footprint.
