HAVERHILL, Mass. – (October 12, 2024) — Broco Energy, a veteran-owned and operated full-service fuel delivery company contracted by various Federal and state government agencies from North Carolina to Florida, is leading the large-scale disaster response by providing vital diesel and gasoline deliveries to areas affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Broco Energy's Priority 1 Emergency Response division deployed 50 diesel tankers and service trucks to key disaster areas in Asheville, NC, and along the Florida west coast. Plus, it's coordinating the efforts of 10 other oil companies in the Boston area. With local fuel supply chains disrupted, the trucked-in fuel is used to power generators and ensure that hospitals, shelters, water pumps, and emergency services remain operational at total capacity.

"This is one of the most challenging operations we've faced, but our team is built for moments like this," said Broco Energy's CEO Robert Brown, a former U.S. Navy Seabee steelworker and Chelsea Fire Department captain. "As a veteran-owned company, we understand the importance of rapid, decisive action, and our priority is to keep essential services powered for those who need it most."

Since establishing Broco Energy's Priority 1 Emergency Response division, the team has provided immediate emergency fuel deliveries to power lifesaving equipment at past relief efforts in Florida, Texas, Louisiana, and Georgia. When called to serve, Broco's workforce of 50 full-time employees, many of whom are veterans, expands significantly to ensure that vital services remain uninterrupted. Since September, Broco Energy has delivered thousands of gallons of fuel to crisis areas.

Broco Energy, founded in 2007 in Haverhill, MA, is a veteran-owned, full-service energy company specializing in fuel delivery services for regional residential, commercial, and industrial clients, plus emergency relief. In 2019, CEO Robert Brown was named Veteran-Owned Small Business Owner of the Year by the Small Business Administration.
