Our Intention (with your help!) is to build the Vermont Energy Company into the nation's premier green, funky gas station brand: a 200+ location, billion dollar force for change in this fantastic, enlightened new economic movement.

What we sell: Car, Body and Soul Power. We think we’re in the “car, body and soul power” business.

• We sell great food for your body (featuring organic and local options), great gas for your car priced very differently from the norm (currently premier traditional gasoline with hydrogen, bio diesel, and battery packs coming).
• And we sell energy for your soul in terms of the values we operate the company within, the local art/ music you can buy in the store, how we distribute the profits and the beauty of the design.

Culture. One of the tragedies of today's business world is the predominance of the yucky cultures corporate cultures that have proliferated. Our customer mantra is to "Truly inspire, passionately entertain and generously serve". To accomplish this vibe consistently we need phenomenal people. To get and keep incredible people we are actively building what we hope to be the coolest culture in the industry. Where leaders care, where people get to play to their strengths, where learning is constant, and where we all matter.

Profits Every year, we take the company’s profits and divide them into thirds. The first third we give to our employee partners, the second third we contribute to environmental non-profits and the final third we use for the national growth of the brand. That’s different.
