Around 50 years ago, there were more than 35,000 filling stations across the UK. Today, little more than 8,300 remain.
As the network has declined, some rural communities have been left with fewer nearby places to refuel. For people living and working in these areas, access to a local filling station can make a real difference.
Our Oilfast Retail sites at Balbeggie and Guildtown provide 24-hour access to fuel for local residents, businesses and passing drivers. With automated pumps and card payment, both sites offer a dependable way to refuel without travelling further afield or relying on traditional opening hours.
It is a privilege to support the communities around Balbeggie and Guildtown, and we look forward to bringing the same service to more locations as the Oilfast Retail network grows.
