Texaco started in 1901 as The Texas Fuel Company in Beaumont, Texas. For years, Texaco was the only company selling fuel under the same brand name in all 50 states and Canada. Its current logo references the Lone Star of Texas. Texaco was still an independent company until the merger with Chevron in 2001. Texaco offers fuel, propane, candy, drugs, soda, beer, chips, hot and cold food products and, of course, water.
