Leading fuel retailers across the MENA region gathered last week in Dubai at ReFuel MENA 2022
Dubai became the meeting point last week for over 40 fuel retailers across the Middle East and North Africa to engage with an impressive list of 60 supplier companies from around the world.
The event was opened by Yemi Fatunla, Managing Director MEA of Gilbarco Veeder-Root, the event’s Platinum Partner – and over two days, the agenda covered global trends in the service station sector, with conference Chair, Hisham Khan, Shell’s Global Alliance Manager, Asia fusing experiences and learnings from retailers and suppliers alike. Two panel discussions, expertly chaired by PetolPlaza’s editor in chief, Oscar Diamante and Kalibrate Technologies’ Simon Martin shared contributions from ADNOC Distribution, Manaseer Oil & Gas, ABB, ENOC, OLA Energy and Capillary Technologies.
