Petroleum Marketer / Jobber
(Fee is determined by gallonage sold.)

Petroleum Marketer - Any person, firm or corporation who markets petroleum products in the State of Florida and purchases petroleum wholesale, owning and/or operating facilities. FPMA jobber members are the backbone of Florida’s fuel and convenience network — connecting supply with service across the state.

Petroleum Jobber/Distributor Dues are calculated based on gallonage sold in Florida. 

If you sell more than 25,000,000 gallons: (25,000,000) x 0.0002 

+

(Number of Gallons over 25,000,000) x $5.00/per each million gallons (Base rate $5/million gallons.)

> For example, if you sold 30,450,000 gallons, your dues would be: (25,000,000 x 0.0002) + (5.45 x $5.00) = $5,027.25
