Stagnant Gas

This highly regulated industry is anything but a convenience, with medium volatility driving demand in a declining industry where profitability is poor. New entrants are kept at bay with medium barriers being the substantial capital costs involved in obtaining a gasoline station, and the level of globalization needed ensure that concentration is at the upper end of the low range. No real sparks in the technology department as changes incurred are no way near as exciting as the price of gasoline itself.

This industry comprises establishments engaged in retailing automotive fuels (e.g., diesel fuel, gasohol, gasoline) in combination with convenience store or food mart items. These establishments can either be in a convenience store (i.e., food mart) setting or a gasoline station setting. These establishments may also provide automotive repair services. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors.
