You may not see them being marketed on the street as a brand but you are buying their products each time you go to the gas station. At the same time, if you go to some stations, you are actually buying a brand of a company that no longer exists.

Most new successful companies are on the upstream side of the business. Those start ups generally don't require the capital outlay it takes to create the economy of scale needed by a refinery.
