Gulf Oil In Ireland

Gulf Oil was introduced to Ireland in 2007. The structure of the business is a long term agreement between Gulf Oil International and the Irish ditribution company. This agreement is at the centre of Gulf Oil's philosophy - 'Your Local Global Brand.

The Irish company is under the direction of CEO Dermot Fallon, who has over thirty years experience at the coal face of both lubricants and retail markets. This company understands that the Irish market is more about independent businesses rather than corporate chains. The Gulf brand will offer flexible opportunities to all customers and brand holders to increase margins, efficiencies and profitability.

Our customers can be assured of international standards of quality, measured by ACEA (European Automobile Manufacturers Association), API (American Petroleum Institute) and ISO (International Organization for Standardization), and many products are approved by leading vehicle and equipment car manufacturers (OEM Approvals).

Our approach for lubricants, service stations and fuel distributors is based on quality, service and reliability. We have a team of dedicated Area Managers based nationwide across Ireland, who are in constant contact with our customers to offer support and advice, along with a streamlined supply chain. We have adapted to suit our main markets by providing a more direct route for delivery, developing closer relationships with our customers, and have steadily increased our market share.
