Ferrellgas Partners (OTCMKTS: FGPR) is one of the largest independent retail propane distributors in the United States. The company supplies propane gas for residential heating, agricultural applications, commercial and industrial processes, and automotive fuel. Its offerings include bulk propane delivery, cylinder exchange services, on-site storage solutions, midstream trading and transportation services, as well as related equipment sales and maintenance. Through its network of service centers and independent dealers, Ferrellgas serves homeowners, farmers, businesses and government customers with a broad portfolio of propane-based energy solutions.
Ferrellgas traces its roots to 1939, when A.C. Ferrell began delivering propane in Missouri. Over subsequent decades, the company expanded its footprint through both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, evolving into a publicly traded limited partnership in the late 1990s. This structure enabled Ferrellgas Partners to access capital markets to support infrastructure development—such as storage terminals, cylinder manufacturing, and distribution depots—while maintaining alignment with its general partner, Ferrellgas, Inc.
Headquartered in Liberty, Missouri, Ferrellgas operates an extensive supply chain that spans production, storage and delivery across all 50 U.S. states. Its midstream operations source propane from international and domestic suppliers, blending and distributing product via pipeline and rail. On the downstream side, the company’s retail network of over 1,000 locations and a fleet of delivery trucks ensure timely service and emergency response capabilities, particularly during peak winter demand.
Under a leadership team with decades of experience in the propane and energy distribution sectors, Ferrellgas places a strong emphasis on safety, customer service and environmental stewardship. The company continues to invest in infrastructure upgrades, digital customer-service tools and alternative fuel technologies—such as renewable propane—to meet evolving energy needs and regulatory requirements. Through these initiatives, Ferrellgas aims to maintain reliability, cost-effective operations and long-term value for its partners and customers.
