The story of Benvenuti Oil Company Benvenuti Oil Company was founded by my in-laws, Gotardo and Regena Benvenuti, in 1950. He was given the nickname “Ben” by his customers and for over 50 years his wife, friends and family referred to him as such. Ben grew up in the Fort Trumble section of New London with his six brothers and one sister. He met his wife, Regena, just prior to being drafted into the army during WWII and was married on July 3, 1942. While in the army, Ben served as a Staff Sergeant in the 52nd Medical Battalion. He was stationed in Africa and participated in the Anzio Beach invasion. A few years after leaving the army, Ben purchased his first truck and Benvenuti Oil Company, Inc. was born. In the early days he did everything himself, including delivering oil, burner service and plumbing installations. The operation started with one oil truck that also doubled as the service vehicle, and the business was run from their home on Louis Street in Waterford. Ben worked day and night responding to customer needs, and Regena handled the telephone and all bookkeeping from her kitchen/office. The second generation began in 1968 when I married their daughter, Deborah, and joined the family business which was now located on Olive Street. When Ben and Regena retired in the 80’s, we took over the daily business operations and continued the business based on Ben’s work ethic. In the company’s history we have never had a work stoppage or layoff, thanks mostly to our customer’s loyalty and our ability to provide top quality workmanship. We have also been able to continue to grow and now serve homes from Waterford to Guilford, Pawcatuck and Colchester. In addition to oil we also provide our customers with heating, cooling, hot water, air filtration, humidification and oil storage equipment. Today, Benvenuti Oil Company is still a family business and in its third generation, with two of our sons in the company overseeing field and office operations. We also employ a staff of highly skilled technicians, experienced drivers and knowledgable office personnel. We have five trucks and eight service trucks to ensure our customers get rapid 24 hour emergency response. In 1999 we built an easily accessible 5,000 square foot office on Boston Post Road to better serve our customers. Thanks for your continued support and patronage.
