About KPMA
The Kentucky Petroleum Marketers Association (KPMA) is a statewide, nonprofit trade association founded in 1926. It is made up of representatives of all segments of the petroleum industry to promote the interest and goodwill of everyone engaged in the marketing and distribution of petroleum products in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The KPMA currently represents approximately 200 member companies and over 800 members. Our marketer and convenience store members own or supply more than 2,300 retail fueling facilities (c-stores, service stations, truck stops, card locks and marinas) in Kentucky. Associate and supplier members provide products and services for petroleum marketers and the industry at large.
The KPMA keeps its members up to date on petroleum-related news and information, pertinent developments in state and national government, and issues and trends that affect petroleum marketing and the industry. The KPMA serves our membership through four core member services: Representation, Education, Advocacy, and Connection. For more about these core services, click here.
