Somerville, NJ - Tuesday September 01 1998

Tremendous growth has been the key to Taylor Oil Company's success in the past, and will continue to be our goal for the future. We are happy to announce the recent opening of 2 new offices in the South. As a result of the recent growth and success of our Orlando Florida operation, this past Spring Taylor Petroleum Co., Inc. opened a new office to service the Miami area. In addition, Taylor Petroleum of Georgia, Inc. opened their Atlanta office over the Summer. With this acquisition of Bowles Oil Company, previously owned and operated by Mr. Elbert Bowles, we now have the pleasure and advantage of having Adam Bowles join our winning team.
