About Company

Florida Public Utilities (FPU) has been providing energy to homes and businesses throughout Florida since 1924. In 2009, Chesapeake Utilities (NYSE: CPK) acquired Florida Public Utilities. At that time, Chesapeake was operating in Florida under Central Florida Gas. The acquisition expanded Chesapeake’s energy presence throughout the state while allowing FPU the opportunity to grow and expand its services. Chesapeake Utilities and FPU share a combined rich history spanning 150 years. Our commitment to distributing safe, reliable, fairly priced energy remains unchanged. Central Florida Gas serves customers in west/central Florida area. In August 2010, FPU purchased the natural gas operating assets of Indiantown Gas Company. FPU now serves approximately 700 residential customers and several commercial customers in Indiantown, Florida. In December 2011, the Company purchased Crescent Propane providing Newberry, Florida and its surrounding areas with propane service. Purchased in February 2012, Barefoot Bay, a community propane gas system in Indian River County, was another of FPU’s propane acquisitions. On August 21, 2012, FPU was granted a non-exclusive franchise to provide natural gas distribution services within the City of Okeechobee. The thirty-year Agreement will bring natural gas service to residential and commercial customers. Okeechobee has convenient access to both coasts and all of Central Florida. The Company looks forward to its role as an area partner in this community. In February 2013, FPU purchased the operating assets of Glades Gas Company in Okeechobee and Clewiston, Florida. On December 2, 2013, FPU acquired the natural gas distribution and operating system from the City of Fort Meade. Propane Districts:
