It hopes to consolidate its Richmond fuel distribution operations at the Colonial Fuel Oil property located at 5279 Mechanicsville Turnpike, Mechanicsville.

"This acquisition supports Quarles’ growth strategy of attaining quality businesses to increase market share in the delivery of heating products to residential and commercial customers," stated Quarles CEO, Paul Giambra. "We look forward to providing Quarles high level of quality customer service to the Colonial Fuel Oil account base."

Art Cassanos, President of Colonial Fuel Oil, stated: "We looked at a number of possible companies to acquire the Colonial Fuel Oil business and we selected Quarles as the best fit for our customers.
