About BPAMA
First, our thoughts are with all of those marketers, their families, employees, and people dealing with the floods in the midwest. It is a difficult situation for many people and we will offer to help in any way we can. Please watch for information or reach out to the Salvation Army if you can.
There is a lot going on right now and I know everyone is busy. We continue to work on outdoor EMV to both inform marketers about the need to progress on EMV equipment and to stay in touch with BP on how the EMV software is progressing. We are spreading the word about our new BPAMA Retirement Savings Program which for many marketers can mean savings in reduced fees and shifting work to our vendor partners! We are exploring how the EV market is changing consumer behavior as well as c-store offers. Our Working Committees are following GetUpside to support BP on this program. Toss in work with BP's communications team on improving BPbetter and we have a full plate. You should have received the minutes from the February Board meeting recently which is another way to stay up to date on our key issues.
Thanks again for your support and please reach out to your NLB members if you have any issues we need to address.

Partnering for Success
Since 1974, BPAMA has been the unparalleled leader in alliance between the Marketer and Supplier in the Petroleum Industry. The strength of BPAMA lies in the power of partnership, Marketers and BP coming together as collaborators to share business expertise, insights and shape the future for the BP branded business with the goal of achieving win-win opportunities. BPAMA members influence strategy and program decisions impacting BP's jobber channel of trade. Programs are developed with Marketer’s input, strategic decisions are identified early, and creative approaches to problems and growth are explored. Add a vendor program where suppliers and Marketers can access goods and services needed for their businesses and BPAMA truly adds value to those who belong.
BPAMA Leadership
BPAMA is led by a group of Marketers who are willing to volunteer their time to work on behalf of all BP branded jobbers. By using their knowledge of the industry, helping to identify key issues you all face, and work with their peers, this group of Marketers helps to add value to all our members by strengthening the BP brand. BPAMA is run by an Executive Director who reports to the National Leadership Board. The NLB is made up of 14 Marketers and 4 BP Senior Managers. We invite you to get involved with your Association by becoming a NLB member, joining one of the Working Committees, or by simply reaching out to a NLB member or Affiliate Member and see what BPAMA has to offer. To learn more about the work of the boards and committees members may log on and review the achievements and work in progress.
