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:
