Advanced Fuel Solutions (AFS) is proud to announce the promotion of Leo Verruso to Vice President, recognizing 15 years of leadership, service, and commitment to our customers, our team, and the liquid fuels industry.
Throughout his time at AFS, Leo has played an important role in helping us grow while keeping our focus where it belongs: delivering reliable fuel-quality solutions and responsive support to the customers and industry partners we serve.
15 Years of Leadership at AFS
Fuel markets have changed considerably over the past 15 years. Fuel specifications have evolved, renewable fuels have become an increasingly important part of the energy mix, and maintaining consistent fuel quality has become more complex.
Through it all, Leo has been a steady and trusted leader at AFS. He has helped strengthen our day-to-day operations, built lasting customer relationships, supported our team, and turned new ideas and strategies into practical solutions for the marketplace.
“Leo has earned this responsibility through years of loyalty, accountability, and execution. He has helped shape the culture and operational discipline of AFS while earning the trust of customers, colleagues, and industry partners. His ability to balance urgency with professionalism and vision with execution will be increasingly important as we continue to grow and serve a changing fuel marketplace.”
— Paul Nazzaro, Founder and President, Advanced Fuel Solutions
Helping Guide the Next Chapter at AFS
In his expanded role as Vice President, Leo will continue to help guide AFS's strategic and operational direction while supporting team development, strengthening our capabilities, and deepening relationships with customers and industry partners.
That work is especially important as the liquid fuels industry continues to incorporate ultra-low-sulfur fuels, biodiesel, renewable diesel, and other lower-carbon fuel solutions.
New fuels bring new opportunities, but they can also introduce new challenges and considerations for storage, handling, blending, cold-weather operability, stability, and overall fuel performance.
At AFS, our role is to help customers manage those changes successfully. We combine fuel additives, fuel testing, technical expertise, and hands-on support to help protect fuel quality and maintain reliable performance from storage through end use.
Leo has been an important part of that mission for the past 15 years, and his promotion formalizes the leadership role he has already earned through sustained performance and service.
