Cosmo Oil, one of Japan’s leading energy companies, traces its origins to early 20th-century oil ventures that later merged into a single entity in 1986 through the consolidation of Maruzen Oil, Daikyo Oil, and the former Cosmo Oil. This merger established a vertically integrated energy business with refining, distribution, and retail operations across Japan. Over the decades, Cosmo has expanded its network and modernized its operations, managing major refineries in Chiba, Yokkaichi, and Sakai while converting older sites into oil terminals.

Today, Cosmo maintains a strong national presence with over 2,600 service stations across Japan, serving as both key retail points and strategic locations for its environmental initiatives. These gas stations not only support their traditional fuel business but also act as collection hubs for used cooking oil to produce SAF, reinforcing their role in Japan’s decarbonization efforts.
