Our take

Booster Fuels is making inroads in the fuel industry by delivering gas, diesel and electric charging to customer cars while they’re parked. In short, it’s an app-powered mobile gas station which makes its money by cutting out the middleman i.e. the station premises itself, while charging market rates.

By offering its services to businesses while their employees are at work, retail parks while customers shop, and residential blocks while residents are at home, the company is able to make dozens of transactions in one trip.

The company has raised substantial capital, and while it seems one of the main barriers to continued growth will be meeting safety regulations and dealing with the bureaucracy that comes with this from state to state, but that hasn’t proved to be a huge problem so far in its growth across the country.
