Costco Selects Gilbarco Fuel Management Services for all Sites in U.S. and Canada

GREENSBORO, N.C. – October 13, 2009 – Costco Wholesale Corporation of Issaquah, Washington is deploying Gilbarco Veeder-Root’s Fuel Management Services (FMS) at all their locations in the U.S. and Canada. Costco operates 406 locations in 40 U.S. states and 77 locations in nine Canadian provinces.

The services will reduce risks and costs related to regulatory compliance and leak detection through continual monitoring of the Tank Gauge. Remote diagnosis and resolution will be performed by certified technicians that staff Gilbarco Veeder-Root’s 24X7 support center in Greensboro NC.

“FMS reduces the total cost of ownership and improves uptime by remotely diagnosing and immediately resolving a large majority of tank gauge alarms that occur at a site,” said Sanjay Chowbey, vice president and general manager of service for Gilbarco. “Our range of services, quality of people and processes, and attention to customers’ needs are attributes that distinguish Gilbarco as the leading provider of remote monitoring solutions to fuel retailers.”

Gilbarco also provides complete c-store monitoring, including energy management, advanced fuel loss and variance analysis, and managed maintenance solutions through a state-of-the art infrastructure that serves over 45,000 sites in the U.S. and Canada.
