Lexington, KY (Aug. 31, 2016) – Locally owned New West Oil (NWO) – based in Phoenix, Arizona and one of 75 Valvoline™ channel partners nationwide – recently expanded its geographic footprint to include the Las Vegas, Nevada area.  The expansion represents new jobs, a new warehouse – located at 5525 West Polaris near the Las Vegas strip.

“This is an exciting growth opportunity for our young company, and we anticipate to extend our Las Vegas employee base and operations moving forward,” said Tim Genrich, CEO, New West Oil. “In our short history, we’ve become a key Valvoline distributor, and we are proud to represent this distinguished brand as we look to a bright future in Southern Nevada.” 

“New West prides itself on being the best at what we do. Our rapid growth and achievements are a direct result of our strong commitment to our incredibly talented employees, great customers and our flagship oil vendor,” said Ron Reeves, NWO president.  “Partnering with Valvoline allows us to continue to excel, and we look forward to serving the Las Vegas market – as well as future expansion market opportunities.“

NWO is an exclusive distributor of the entire Valvoline family of brands and products. These include passenger car motor oils, commercial/heavy duty lubricants, filters, Professional Series Service Flush Chemicals, and Zerex antifreeze/coolants. To better serve their customers NWO also offers environmental services to include used oil, filter and coolant recycling. 

“I am excited to have New West Oil represent Valvoline's family of brands in the greater Las Vegas area,” said David Young, Valvoline channel partner sales.  “Valvoline's current and prospective customers will be delighted in the support, service and commitment to their business they receive from the New West Oil / Valvoline team in Las Vegas."

As the wholesale lubricant marketplace is consolidating, Valvoline continues to look for methods to improve its network, which could include additional opportunities in assisting its aligned channel partners with their own geographic footprint expansion.
