If You Have Always Wanted To Run Your Own BusinessHere’s An Opportunity to Take It to The Star.

Most people think corporate America should provide more opportunities to those with limited resources. We couldn’t agree more.

We recognize our responsibility to foster business in neighborhoods wherewe do business, employment in communities where it’s needed most andequal opportunity for everyone.

Franchising lets you run your own business by combining entrepreneurialdrive and ambition with the experience and expertise of a large company.The result is a rewarding relationship for both parties.

That’s why Texaco’s Franchise Outreach Program is o�ering servicestation, fast food and other retail opportunities in one of today’s mostexciting and progressive franchises.
