Glenfarg Oil Buying Syndicate (GOBS)

The Glenfarg Oil Buying Syndicate (GOBS) was set up by Dave and Kate Arnold in May 2011 with the aim of reducing the cost of heating oil for residents of Glenfarg, Duncrievie, Drunzie, and the surrounding area. By combining individual orders into one bulk purchase, the Syndicate is able to secure a lower price per litre. This also results in fewer tankers coming into the village(s), reducing congestion and pollution.

Since its inception, the Syndicate has grown steadily and now has over 200 active members.

Orders are placed 10 times a year, with no orders in June or August.

There is no joining fee or annual subscription. Ordering is simple, and there is no obligation to participate in every combined order. On average, members save between 10% and 20%.

GOBS is currently organised by James Harbayes. If you have any questions, you can contact James at gobs@glenfarg.org or call him on 07769 228759.
