History:

NECSEMA was formed in 2015 through the merger of the New England Convenience Store Association (NECSA) and the Independent Oil Marketers Association of New England (IOMANE). NECSA was formed in 1982 as convenience store owners and operators realized the need for unity in a highly competitive and ever-changing marketplace. IOMA was founded in 1923, making it one of the oldest petroleum trade associations in the country. Together, these two forces realize the synergies of their legislative and regulatory capabilities. NECSEMA leaders and members are informed and represented at all levels of state, local and federal government. Protecting and promoting the retail and energy marketer industry, and the tens of thousands of jobs our members create and maintain in New England, remains the top priority of NECSEMA.
