Coyne Oil & Propane

The Coyne family has made customer service a top priority since 1930. Lorne Coyne founded the company and led it until 1954, when his son, Dan Coyne, took leadership. In March 1976, Coyne Oil Corporation was born when Dan’s sons, Dave and Mark, took over the company. Since then, the business has been growing; expanding locations and services throughout Central and Northern Michigan.  our story altIn 1989, a 42,000-square-foot warehouse was added to house numerous petroleum products.
