The London-listed firm said it had agreed terms with Valero to provide fuel distribution services for a further five years.
It said it would manage transportation from Valero's UK terminals to more than 700 retail sites across the country.
More than 200 deliveries would be made by Wincanton every day, transporting more than two billion litres of ground fuel each year.
Wincanton had also renewed its contract with Marley for the distribution of roofing products across the UK until late 2023.
The company said the contract would continue a “strong working relationship” between the two firms, which stretched back more than a decade to 2008.
It would see Wincanton use a dedicated fleet of specialist vehicles, which would be supported by its wider construction fleet of more than 200 mechanical off-load vehicles - the largest fleet in the UK.
“We've been working with Valero for more than 25 years,” said Wincanton chief executive officer Adrian Colman.
“In that time, we've built up a strong partnership with Valero and developed a real understanding of the needs of its customers.
“Extending our working relationship with Marley is validation of our expertise in servicing this business up and down the UK with complex transportation requirements.”
