Suburban Propane Partners, L.P., operating through its subsidiaries, specializes in the retail marketing and distribution of propane, fuel oil, and other refined fuels. The company structures its diverse operations across four main segments. The Propane segment is dedicated to the retail supply of propane for residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural clients, in addition to wholesale distribution to industrial customers. This propane is widely used for space and water heating, cooking, and clothes drying in residential and commercial settings. Industrially, it serves as a motor fuel for vehicles, forklifts, and stationary engines, fuels furnaces, acts as a cutting gas, and is applied in various process applications. Agricultural uses include tobacco curing, crop drying, poultry brooding, and weed control. The Fuel Oil and Refined Fuels segment focuses on providing fuel oil, diesel, kerosene, and gasoline to residential and commercial customers, primarily for heating homes and buildings. Through its Natural Gas and Electricity segment, Suburban Propane markets natural gas and electricity to residential and commercial consumers within the deregulated energy markets of New York and Pennsylvania. Finally, the All Other segment handles the sale, installation, and maintenance of a variety of home comfort equipment, such as complete heating systems, air purification units, humidifiers, and portable heaters. As of September 25, 2021, the company served approximately 1 million customers across residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural sectors. Its operations are vast, encompassing 700 locations across 41 U.S. states, with a strong presence on the East and West Coasts, select Midwest areas, and Alaska.
