Gasoline & Petroleum Wholesaling in the US

The Gasoline and Petroleum Wholesaling industry has contended with highly volatile conditions over the past five years as it performs in line with movements in the price of crude oil. The world price of crude oil plummeted in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic and skyrocketed in 2021 and 2022 as the economy recovered. A sudden undersupply of oil because of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine exacerbated price increases late in the period. Wholesalers have benefited from the soaring demand for oil. Over the five years to 2023, industry revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.1% to $928.0 billion, including a decline of 4.8% in 2023.
