U.S. fuel retailer Pilot Company is trimming its energy trading operation, following the acquisition of a majority stake in the firm by investor Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc .

Berkshire Hathaway declined to comment. In 2018 it acquired a stake of about 39% in the company. In late January it increased its stake to 80%, the Pilot spokesman said.Pilot's oil and petroleum trading operation is small, with about 100 employees, a fraction of the staff at better-known traders Freepoint Commodities, Mercuria and Vitol. The privately held company posted sales of about $45 billion in 2021.

Pilot operates about 800 retail outlets in 44 U.S. states and six Canadian provinces, and runs a fleet of 1,600 tanker trunks that supply its own stores and other retailers.
