Terpel was founded in 1968 as a solution to the shortage of gasoline in Santander, Colombia. The Terpel Bucaramanga Company was formed then with 20 service stations with the initiative that in the upcoming years it would expand to a national scale with the birth of 6 more Terpeles in different Colombian regions. Terpel began to strengthen its challenge: to be the fuel distributor known for its close client relationship with a strong regional presence.
In 2001, the principal shareholders of Terpeles, integrated the 7 regional companies and created the Terpel Organization which was consolidated in 2004. The objective of this initiative was centered in obtaining unity of strategic business negotiation, administrative stability, generating synergies for their clients and to promote their brand to properly compete in a market that constantly demands a higher national level.
