History of Texaco

Texaco, or known as “The Texas Company” was founded back in 1901.  Their sister companies include companies such as Chevron, as well as others.  Today, they have their headquarters located in San Ramon, California, since they have merged with Chevron.

In the United States today, they have over 1,000 stations that are located worldwide, including Africa, as well as Europe, where they have a very strong presence.
