Texaco Website
Texaco was born in Beaumont, Texas in 1902. Back then we called ourselves The Texas Company, but when a salesman saw the abbreviation "Texaco" in a telegram, it became our favorite nickname.
The first Texaco star arrived in 1903, when a 19-year-old Italian refinery worker suggested we embrace the five-pointed symbol of Texas. He later added a green "T" - a color scheme he probably picked up from the Italian flag.
