Company History
Consols Oils was founded in 1986 by Kevin Bennetts, an ex-fisherman seeking a new career path.
A need was identified for a heating oil supplier prepared to undertake difficult or awkward deliveries throughout Cornwall; a task often not relished by more established suppliers.
Consols Oils first delivery vehicle was a tiny 600-gallon capacity tanker built to cope with Cornwalls legendary narrow lanes.
During the intervening years, many milestones have been reached, notably our first brand-new tanker in 1990, enlarged storage in 1992 and new offices and warehouse in 1994. At around this time we obtained our first large articulated tanker to fetch our own bulk fuel supplies into our premises at St Day, Redruth.
In 2019 Consols Oils was sold to NWF Fuels, part of the NWF Group. NWF Fuels are a national supplier who recogise the importance of a local brand within the community. This acquisition brings greater benefits in terms of a robust, national supply chain and modernised fleet of tankers. As a deep-rooted Cornish company, we are proud to be able to make an ongoing commitment to the local infrastructure.
