In 1972, Lank Oil Company became a CITGO jobber. To operate its jobbership, Lank Oil Company incorporated with William C. Lank, Sr. and Mary G. Lank being joined by William C. Lank, Jr. to form the initial ownership and management team.

For over forty years Lank Oil has remained a CITGO jobber but has also represented Phillips 66, Unocal, BP, Fina and Marathon as well as the unbranded products of Transmontaigne and Pure.

In 2001, Lank Oil Company entered into an agreement with Diversified oil Company to take over Diversifieds tankwagon/fuel delivery business. In the acquisition, Lank Oil Company acquired 5 tankwagons and over 2,000 fuel customers. Most of the fuel truck drivers and a few key office personnel also made the transition from Diversified to Lank Oil.

In 2012, Lank Oil Company sold the lubricant side of their business to Flamingo Oil Company. This allowed them to focus strictly on selling diesel fuel and gasoline; operating throughout Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
