VP Racing Opens New Multi-Purpose Facility Western Growth Drives Expansion
San Antonio, TX (January 7, 2025) - VP Racing Fuels, Inc., recognized worldwide as the leader in performance fuel products, today announced the development of a new multi-purpose facility in Parker, Arizona. The property will serve VP’s continuing growth in western US markets and beyond.
“VP Racing has experienced phenomenal growth across this country and, in fact, globally, in recent years, a good portion of it driven by the western half of the nation,” said Alan Cerwick, President & CEO of VP Racing. “The location and features of this new facility will boost our production and distribution capabilities, allowing us to exceed our customers’ expectations and accelerate future growth in the region and throughout the US.”
The eight-acre property includes several buildings, 2.3 million gallons of tank storage, a truck rack, a 16-car rail spur, and a distillation tower to accommodate specialty applications such as transmix and off-spec products reclamation. Building upon this foundation, renovation and new construction will begin immediately and will be operational as soon as March with bulk service via rail and truck.
Additional plans include a massive warehouse and substantial packaging capability, relieving pressure from existing facilities and accommodating the blending of specialty fuels, including VP’s exclusive 101-octane street-legal gasoline and VP’s much-anticipated unleaded AVGAS, an aviation fuel, currently in the FAA’s PAFI program.
“We’re excited to bring our customers in the West an increased level of service,” said Mike Emerson, Western Regional Manager for VP Racing. “Our growth in this region has been totally organic through existing and new wholesale customers as well as a growing popularity of our products at the retail sales level. Our customers and end-users fuel our momentum.”
When completed, the fully developed facility will accommodate the production and distribution of VP’s full assortment of products.
