WHO WE ARE

The California Fuels & Convenience Alliance (CFCA), is the industry's statewide trade association representing the entire downstream fuel supply chain. Our association represents everyone between the refineries and final consumers, including marketers/distributors, transporters, and gas stations & convenience stores.

The vast majority of our members are small business owners -with many of them being family-owned businesses passed down from one generation to the next- who serve every region, city, county, and locality in this state.

Together, we're stronger. Consider becoming a CFCA member today:

CFCA Podcast: BEYOND THE PUMP

For most Californians, the gas station is their primary interaction with the fuels industry. But, there's so much more to this complex and pivotal sector that affects our daily lives in ways we might not even realize.

From the ever-evolving technologies to the socioeconomic impacts, we'll bring you expert insights, interviews with industry leaders, and discussions that shed light on the fuel that powers our lives.
