NASHVILLE, TN--(Marketwired - Jan 28, 2016) - First Colombia Gold Corp. (OTC PINK: FCGD) announced today that after its recent closing of the fuel terminal located in North Carolina, the company is now considering entering into fuel distribution in the Houston market. In the wake of high demand and recent request from potential customers, First Colombia Gold Corp. is exploring the viability of entering that market as a fuel distributor. The company has been in negotiations to secure fuel allocation in that market and has already begun exploring potential customer lists for exits and off-take.

The company's CEO, Jason Castenir, stated, "Recent volatility in the fuel and oil markets has created a demand for lower-cost, reliable fuel distribution. Our connections in the fuel industry have allowed us to create a scenario whereby our customers can take advantage of our volume pricing with the added guarantee of fuel allotment. Add to this is our joint venture with Singa Energy Solutions, and you have a perfect storm, where high volume capabilities meets high volume global customers. We are very excited about the revenue possibilities through these partnerships."
