Customer Reviews
I am glad to write this letter of recommendation for Bill Bowles and Akins Petroleum. Our family started this business in 1957 in Camilla Georgia. The third generation of our family is now working alongside the second. We are a NAPA parts store. We stock a large inventory of NAPA products, but NAPA does not always have evert product we need for our market. Over the years we have certainly had many sales representatives call on us. I will say that Bill Bowles is one of the best. Bill listens and pays attention to our needs. He has learned our market. He always makes sure that we know when the route truck is coming to Camilla. There have been many times that we had a customer that needed a product we did not have in stock. Every time that has happened, Bill has personally delivered the products to us in his pickup truck so fast, we thought he was right down the street from our store. The quality of the products from Akins Petroleum are first class. The pricing is very competitive. The delivery staff is very professional and knowledgeable. We appreciate our relationship with Bill Bowles and Akins Petroleum Co.

I am the purchasing director at a large sawmill. About 2 years ago we were having difficulties acquiring some of the fluids that are required to run our mill. I contacted Bill Bowles at Akins Petroleum. Bill responded quickly and even brought a factory manager with him to review the specs on the products we needed. The specs were an exact match. Bill and Akins began to supply our mill with these products and have been doing so ever since. Bill understands sawmills as he explained to me early on that he grew up in a sawmill family. To date we have had 2 unexpected fluid losses. Bill assembled his Akins team and was on the way with products in less than 30 minutes. That level of service is priceless in our business. I am glad to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Bill Bowles and Akins Petroleum Company.

I am the parts department director at a large truck dealership in Albany Georgia. We sell and service new Kenworth and Mack trucks. I have known Bill Bowles for many years. Shortly after he went to work at Akins Petroleum, he called on me to ask if he could have an opportunity to earn our business. Bill understands the nature of our business. He constantly stops by and checks our oil and fluid levels. He never allows us to run out of anything. In addition, I call on Bill when I need other specialty items for our customers. He quickly responds every time. The level of service that Bill and Akins Petroleum provides us with is appreciated. I am proud to write this letter of recommendation.

I manage DJ’s II Oil Change in Albany, Georgia, which I have proudly done for the past 12 years. A short time after Bill Bowles went to work for Akins Petroleum, he called on me to ask for an opportunity to earn our business. We were doing business with another oil company, but something told me that I could trust Bill. So, I began to give him small orders. Since that day he has stopped in our business every week. He has learned our business needs. He pays attention and is always available on his phone. I have been proud to give Bill and Akins the opportunity to supply some of our bulk oil tanks as well as other packaged oil products and fluids that we use every day. Bill is someone I can trust and rely on to supply us with our oil and fluid needs. Akins Petroleum is a company that we enjoy doing business with. In addition, I am proud to call Bill Bowles my friend.

I am very glad to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Bill Bowles and Akins Petroleum Co. I manage the mechanical vehicle repair division of Master Body Works in Leesburg Georgia. I have known Bill for many years. He quickly learned our business needs. He stops by almost every week and checks our inventory levels. If I am not available, he sends me a text with his suggestions for the items we need. He never allows us to run out of anything. The quality of the products and quick delivery from Akins Petroleum is second to none. Bill Bowles and Akins Petroleum are absolutely our first choice to supply us with our oils, lubricants, and other fluids that we use.
