Our History
In 1939, Mamie and Gene Arnold founded the original Arnold Oil Company in Corpus Christi, Texas. Soon after graduating from Baylor University in 1976, Jim Arnold realized the opportunity and need to expand operations by opening his own facility. In 1977 he opened the doors to Arnold Oil Company in Austin with one other employee, two vehicles, and minimal inventory. Now, four generations later, both of Jims children are actively involved in the business.

During the 1980s, Jim began acquiring independent auto parts stores in addition to adding an automotive equipment division. He knew the future success of Arnold Oil Company was contingent upon his customers successes, which meant continually finding solutions that led to customers profitable growth. They expanded their product lines and service territories, eventually growing to more than 30 locations across Central and South Texas.

Because Arnold Oil is dependent on the sustainability of vendors, customers and industry partners, Jims commitment to quality throughout the industry led him to chair and actively serve on many industry partner and vendor councils to ensure the best service and products could be provided to Arnold Oil Companys customers. Jim continues to be involved in their decision-making processes while always looking to gain knowledge of different ways to provide enhanced solutions to industry-related problems.

Arnold Oil staffs the most knowledgeable and motivated people in the industry. Our goal is to help train and assist our customers so that they are able to operate efficient and profitable businesses. Our company encourages self-improvement through education and training programs that help each individual attain their maximum potential.A dedication to community service serves as one of our cornerstones of success. Arnold Oil Company has supported hundreds of organizations and projects throughout the years, and continues that community commitment with great pride.
