During hurricanes Katrina and Rita, when electricity was out for hundreds of thousands of people, Ricochet customer TXU was looking for a way to get fuel in the affected areas quickly in order to operate in several devastated areas and restore electricity. Ricochet staffers were able to establish temporary fuel camps powered by 12 volt pumps, allowing TXU trucks to have a steady supply of fuel. Also last year, the Dallas/Fort Worth chapter of the National Association of Women Business Owners named Roberts its 3 Woman Business Owner of the Year. Roberts was recognized for her "innovative business approach- es to building a growing business, her service as a role model to other women business owners and her achievement of a level3 balance between her professional and personal responsibilities," the organization, also known as NAWBO D/FW, said in a state- ment. 3 Last year, the company also expanded, moving into a 6,000- square-foot building in Euless to house its employees and equip- ment, complete with commercial gas pumps to serve clients who —don't need their fuel delivered. 3 "It was a great move," said Roberts. "We needed to have a place to better serve our customers and this has turned out great." Roberts started in the fuel distribution business right out of col- le9e, in Texaco's marketing department, and then at another local retailer, Superior Fuels. She says starting her own company has given her some insight 3 into what it takes to be successful. "It's been a matter of rolling with the punches and figuring out what to do next," she said. "It also helps to have a good support 3 system of friends,family, customers and other business owners. Those have proven to be key."
