Our Story
FMJ Fuel Partners LLC was founded in 2022 by Derek Stanhope, a combat veteran of the United States Army with a deep commitment to service, integrity, and operational excellence. After completing his military service, Derek earned his degree and spent over a decade as a diesel mechanic, gaining firsthand insight into the evolving challenges of modern diesel emissions systems.
During his time in the field, Derek recognized a growing problem: fuel-related issues were becoming more frequent, and customers lacked reliable solutions. Determined to fill that gap, he launched FMJ Fuel Partners to serve California’s Central Valley with a mission rooted in clean fuel, regulatory compliance, and technical precision.
Today, FMJ Fuel Partners stands at the forefront of petroleum quality and fuel management. Derek has become a recognized expert in the field, collaborating with leading laboratories across the United States and working alongside major fuel companies to uphold California’s rigorous environmental standards. His hands-on experience, combined with a relentless drive for clean compliance, ensures that every client receives dependable, data-driven service.
At FMJ, we believe clean fuel isn’t just a requirement — it’s a responsibility. Whether you're a fleet operator, fuel distributor, or regulatory agency, we’re here to help you stay compliant, efficient, and ahead of the curve.
