He began his career as an entrepreneur after 18 years as a securities trader. He graduated from Emory University, receiving a B.A. in economics.

“Since Rand and his son, Alec, launched Fuel Ox back in 2014, they’ve won over customers in the U.S. and internationally across a wide range of industries with a product that improves fuel economy, lowers maintenance and operating expenses and reduces emissions, and the exciting part about that is we’re just getting started,” said Mazzanobile. “The runway for growth in the fuel additives category is substantial, especially for a differentiated product like ours. I’m very excited to be working with this great team to not only make The Fuel Ox an indispensable asset for fleet managers but also make it available to more retail shoppers who want better performance, lower emissions and fewer maintenance headaches from their trucks, cars, boats, boilers and heavy equipment.”
