Summit started off helping his dad, Mike, while they ran their first gas station. He helped to fill customer's tanks with fuel, wash their windshields, and give the personal touch to customer service like Southeast Petro does still today. Summit learned from his dad that to succeed in the business, you have to have values and integrity, and as the President, he has exuded those principals in every facet of his day to day operations of the company. Summit is carrying on the legacy that his dad has built, and will continue to bring the core values he was taught to every customer that he deals with.

Mike started off in the fuel industry with one gas station in Cocoa, FL, and has built the business to what it is today through hard work and dedication to his family and his community. Now, Southeast Petro supplies over 400 stations throughout Florida, Georgia and Alabama and employs well over 100 people. Mike is a people person, and he is there for his customers from beginning to end. His philosophy is relationship over all else, and he is the patriarch of Southeast Petro and all that the company stands for today.
