Forecourt operator Motor Fuel Group (MFG) has acquired six sites in the Lake District from AUK Investments.
The deal comprised of three BP and three Shell branded stations. MFG stated that it planned to improve the convenience shop offer on each site and introduce food-to-go options where appropriate.
William Bannister, Chief Executive at MFG said: “AUK is a well-respected family business in the Lake District and the six stations that we have purchased from them, gives us the opportunity to extend our network coverage into Cumbria in what is normally, a thriving tourist area.”
This acquisition takes the total number of sites operated by MFG to 911 – cementing its position as the UK’s largest independent forecourt operator.
