May 15, 2017 FAMILY BUSINESS AWARDS 2017

Safety and growth help DiLeo Gas thrive

Brothers Paul Jr. and Harry knew the score when they took over the family business from their father two years ago: Only 20-30 percent of family businesses survive to the second generation. Yet, after more than 20 years of watching Paul Sr. provide for their family, they knew they had to succeed. Since taking over, the brothers have doubled the firm's customer base and tripled its number of employees to nine, all while focusing on safety to result in zero accidents and injuries.

With community service burned into its company culture, DiLeo is the largest contributor to the Millbury Future Foundation, which gives scholarships to Millbury High School seniors. The firm gives 100 gallons of free gas every year to a randomly selected customer, and works with fuel assistance programs at Worcester Community Action Council and South Middlesex Opportunity Council.
