USA: Pilot Corp. to sell Shell fuel at 29 gas stations

From the end of this summer Pilot Corporation will begin offering Shell gasoline at 29 Knoxville-area Pilot Convenience Stores.

The locations will sell grades of Shell-branded unleaded gasoline, and the fuel islands will be branded with the Shell logo. The new affiliation will allow Pilot customers to participate in the Fuel Rewards and grocery rewards programs, according to a company release.

Pilot will maintain ownership and management of all Pilot Convenience Store locations and will still accept Pilot Fleet Cards and MyRewards for in-store promotions.

“Shell is known for its high-quality products and service, and those are the same values we pride ourselves on at Pilot,” said Pilot Flying J President Ken Parent.

“This affiliation allows us to extend Shell products to our guests and team members at their neighborhood stores. They will also be able to participate in the Fuel Rewards and grocery rewards programs. We’re excited to begin our work together,” added Parent.

Shell Oil Company is a global group of energy and petrochemical companies with operations in more than 70 countries. In the U.S., Shell operates in 50 states and employs more than 20,000 people.
