Planning ahead to serve Alaska better
Standard’s faith in Alaska’s future began in 1885
... long before the Gold Rush. A Standard man was among
the first at Dawson in ’98 ... building a pier for our stem
wheeler Oil City which was steaming up the Yukon with
urgently needed mining candles and kerosene.
As the Territory grew, Standard’s facilities kept pace.
Fishing fleets and canneries, shipping and aviation, mines
and mills, lumbering and farming found our products ready
to help them grow. From this tradition of planning ahead
has come a vast network of storage and dock facilities, ma
rine stations, bulk plants and service stations... proof of
Standard’s confidence in the Territory and its future.
