Shell Marketers Association Expands Membership
WASHINGTON -- The National Association of Shell Marketers (NASM) opened up its membership to two additional Shell petroleum product providers -- Lubricant marketers and subjobbers, the association stated.
NASM's board of directors recognized the mutual priorities of Shell fuel marketers and lubricants marketers, and voted to accept the lubricant marketers as members of the organization, the group stated.
Lubricant marketers that join the new Lubricant Marketer Membership Section (LMMS) will receive benefits including legal counsel, affinity partner discounts, publication subscriptions, member conference attendance rates and participation in The Dialogue, according to the association.
To qualify as a LMMS member, marketers must have a current Lubricants Marketing Agreement with Shell, and no fuel marketing agreements, NASM stated. A chairman will be appointed to the LMMS, and members will have the chance to shape the mission of the LMMS.
Membership dues vary by volume. Marketers with less than five million gallons pay a due of $575, while NASM provides a formula to determine dues for those who have a volume higher than 5 million gallons, with a cap of $1,500, according to NASM
