Whitaker Oil is a 3rd-generation, family-owned, chemical
distributor. Our business began in Atlanta, Georgia
with a single gasoline pump in the 1920's. In the 1930's,
we added solvents, bulk storage, and custom blending
to meet the needs of our customers.
As the Atlanta warehouse and bulk storage facility
grew, we added a 13-million gallon barge terminal in
Panama City, Florida. This provided our customers with
an assured supply of solvents, even during the periods
when solvents are in short supply.
In the 1980's, we expanded into Ocoee (Orlando), Florida,
where a warehouse and packaging facility added another
dimension to our chemical distribution business.
In 1998, Whitaker Chemicals in Spartanburg, SC was
established to better serve the customers in South Carolina
and North Carolina.
In 2003, Whitaker Oil established additional bulk
storage and distribution capability in Savannah, Georgia.
