The Blue Rhino history began in 1994 with founder Billy Prim's goal of building a national brand of propane tank exchange that would capitalize on the growth in gas grill sales and year-round grilling. While safer and more convenient than refill, tank exchange represented a small percentage of the market at the time and was viewed as a commodity service. Blue Rhino has dramatically changed both those industry dynamics. A national distribution network was constructed, retailer partnerships were established, innovative, value-added features were built into the product and a new brand was born. It was named Blue Rhino after the strong, tough, interesting and fun-loving animals Billy had admired on a trip to Africa.Today, Blue Rhino - a division of Ferrellgas- is becoming a mainstay of the North American home. From our #1 tank exchange brand to their popular and innovative propane products, you'll find a Blue Rhino in or on millions of backyards, decks, and patios.
