As Majors continues to grow, the efficiency of our operations is increasingly important. We have a well-diversified supply portfolio and great carriers, but we needed the right software solution to optimize our supply decisions and logistics execution. Gravitate was the obvious choice for us, given the sophistication of their platform and their understanding of our business.

The Company

Majors Management supplies fuel to more than 1,400 convenience store locations across 20 states, operating under the MAPCO and Hop In brands while distributing branded and unbranded motor fuels to independent operators nationwide. Majors made headlines in 2023 for the acquisition of MAPCO, which involved the addition of 192 unbranded sites to their largely branded portfolio. The company purchases hundreds of millions of gallons of fuel each year and works with a portfolio of carrier partners to execute their logistics operations.

The Challenge

Aggressive growth needs supply infrastructure to match

With an aggressive acquisition strategy adding stores at a rapid clip, Majors needed fuel supply and distribution infrastructure that could absorb new locations without missing a beat. As the company continued to grow, the efficiency of operations became increasingly important. Majors had a well-diversified supply portfolio and strong carrier partners — but it needed the right software solution to optimize supply decisions and logistics execution across an expanding footprint, while gaining visibility and control over a network that mixes owned brands, dealer locations, and common carriers.

The Solution

Gravitate Supply & Carrier Management

Majors Management selected Gravitate as its software partner to help transform their fuel supply and carrier management processes. The company began implementing Gravitate's flagship Supply and Dispatch platform across its 1,400 retailer and dealer locations, with go-live targeted for the summer driving season.

The Gravitate solution provides enhanced functionality across the supply chain:

  • Managing supply contracts and creating real-time supply valuations

  • Supply optimization / best buy

  • Order status and ETAs

  • Inventory management

  • Order generation and carrier dispatch

The Gravitate Supply & Carrier Management solution adds new functionality to its existing Supply and Dispatch suite by connecting fuel retailers and common carriers via the new "Crossroads" integration framework. Crossroads enables fuel retailers without trucks to gain more control and visibility over their supply chains, source dynamically, and quickly communicate with carriers. The new suite also adds modules including Freight Invoicing and Billing and Supplier Invoice Reconciliation.

The Results

A platform built for both retailers and carriers

Majors Management's selection of Gravitate exemplifies a strategic shift in the industry: fuel retailers without trucks gaining more control and visibility over their supply chains while staying tightly coordinated with their carrier partners. With Gravitate, Majors gains:

  • A unified platform across 1,400+ retailer and dealer locations

  • Real-time supply contract management and valuations

  • Best-buy supply optimization across hundreds of millions of gallons annually

  • Crossroads integration with common carriers, including Freight Invoicing and Supplier Invoice Reconciliation

  • The infrastructure to absorb new acquisitions without disruption

The partnership reflects Gravitate's broader mission to help the fuels industry share data more freely and leverage AI and automation to make better supply decisions.
