Christensen Acquires Idaho-Based United Oil

RICHLAND, Wash. and BOISE, Idaho – Christensen Inc., a leader in fuel, lubricants, and propane distribution across the Pacific Northwest, is excited to announce the acquisition of United Oil, one of the industry’s premier distributors, with operations based in southern Idaho.

The addition of United Oil strengthens our distribution network in one of the fastest-growing markets in the country.

This acquisition brings together two dedicated, family-owned, and operated organizations. Together, they have over 100 years of serving the fuel, lubricant, and propane needs of their customers.

With the completion of the acquisition, Christensen will add an additional 3000 customers to its client roster, which spans retail fuel, commercial and fleet organizations.

Christensen offers an innovative suite of products and services to more than 10,000 retail fuels, commercial, industrial, and fleet card customers. As a recent winner of the Phillips 66 Innovation Award, Christensen leads the industry with its technology-driven tools that enable customers real-time access to business reporting, delivery details, and other crucial data, anytime and anywhere through its mobile app or customer-based web portal.

This acquisition builds on the strong momentum Christensen has generated over the course of 2021, with the acquisition of two other distributors. As Christensen expands its footprint into Idaho, it will allow the company to continue to accelerate its long-term, sustainable growth plans.
