Our History
The inception of FuelLink US Solutions is intrinsically linked to the vision and determination of its founder, Lena Hummel. While managing logistics for a German-based company with expanding US operations, Lena encountered firsthand the fragmented and often frustrating experience of controlling fuel expenditures for a transatlantic fleet. The difficulties of managing multiple accounts, deciphering unclear billing from various providers, and the lack of a unified view created significant operational inefficiencies. It was from this direct experience that the seed for FuelLink US Solutions was planted, with a clear goal to create a singular, streamlined solution for international efs and Fleet One card management.
Driven by this vision, Lena laid the groundwork for the company, focusing on building strategic partnerships with key network providers and developing a proprietary technological backbone. The official verification of the company on September 29, 2025, marked the culmination of this planning phase and the formal launch of our services from our headquarters in Eschershausen, Germany. This date signifies our commitment to building a structured, trustworthy, and verified partner for our clients, establishing a new standard in the industry from day one. The initial challenge was to create a system that could not only aggregate data but also provide intelligent analysis, a challenge we met with relentless focus.
Our growth trajectory has been defined by listening closely to our clients and continuously adapting our platform to meet their evolving needs. The early adoption of our services by a core group of forward-thinking businesses validated our model and provided the feedback necessary to refine our offerings. A major milestone in our history was the successful deep integration of the Fleet One network into our platform, following our established work with efs. This achievement demonstrated our technical prowess and solidified our reputation as a comprehensive solution capable of handling the most popular and widespread fuel card systems in the United States.
From our foundational steps to our current position, the company's journey has been one of steady, purposeful expansion. Today, we serve a diverse and growing portfolio of clients across Europe, all of whom benefit from our matured systems and accumulated expertise. The history of FuelLink US Solutions is a story of solving a real-world problem with innovation and dedication, evolving from a founder's insight into a robust, reliable service that empowers businesses to operate across borders without friction. As we look to the future, we remain committed to the principles that started it all: clarity, control, and exceptional client partnership.
