PBDWEST DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES Torrance California
PBDWEST/PBD is Power Buying Dealers. It was privated held by Charles Khalil, and began as a way for Independent Exxon Mobile Station owners to purchase products at competitive prices in order to compete with 7-11, Smiths' etc.
The program was a membership which allowed PBDWEST/PBD to receive a percentage of the dealers purchases through Coke, Pepsi, 7UP and Frito Lay. Most Importantly. it allowed PBD/PBDWEST to recive the Dealers Tobacco payments directly from Philip Morris Before the dealers were paid.
As a result, PBDwest/PBD took significant amounts of monies from the Dealers UNBEKNOWNEST to the dealers as the agree ment states that PBDWEST/PBD would recieve 7-40% of the dealers profits from tobacco and $300.00 per quarter for ALL beverage and FritoLay purchases.
After years of the Dealers not receiving the Correct amounts of rebates, payments form PBDWEST/PBD they kbegan to become aware of the matter and expressed their concerns.
Shortly afterwards, PBDWEST/PBD websites no longer are functional. Nor are any of its employees email addresses.
This is a warning to all Sinclair, Shell, Chevron and other Independent station dealers to NOT participate in this so called program. It is a SCAM!!
