About Us
NEWMAN’S FUELS
The Newman family has been in the fuel business for around 50 years. Jim and Pam Newman originally purchased the service station at 140 Adelaide Street, Blayney in 1975.
After operating as a petrol station for two years, the three squash courts were built and the business became a stockist of Husqvarna and Victa garden products. The business was re-named Blayney Squash and Service Centre.
Over the next few years, the business was leased to a local family. Whilst leasing the service station, the fuel depot was created at 3 Maria Street, Blayney and Newman’s Fuels was born.
The depot provided fuel and oil deliveries to farmers and businesses in the local area and also introduced fuel accounts.
In 2012, Newman’s Fuels decided to install the necessary infrastructure to provide 24 hour fuel access in Blayney as the service station was closing at 7pm. There is an Outdoor POS Terminal (OPT) that accepts, EFTPOS, credit card, Caltex card and Newman’s account cards (all requiring a PIN) to access fuel.
For 50 years, the Newman family have employed many local people, sponsored local clubs and sporting teams and donated to various schools, day care centres, the elderly and various organisations in the local area.
