Naughton Energy was formed in 1976 as a coal-trading firm with its initial marketing efforts concentrated on the Northeast. In the early 1980s the company entered into petroleum sales. During the 1980s the coal and petroleum markets were expanded, and the company initiated sales of natural gas and specialized lubricants. In 2005 Naughton Energy partnered to form S & N Energy, a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business. Naughton Energy currently has the capability to directly supply petroleum products, lubricants and coal. Through affiliated companies Naughton Energy is positioned to provide natural gas, electricity and HVAC services.
