Essar Oil UK has a new agreement with independent forecourt operator MPK Garages to rebrand and supply an initial tranche of twelve sites. The deal, which is the biggest secured by the Essar team to date, will see the company network expand to 67 stations and include the first rebrand of a BP site.

Under the new agreement, the first Essar site was officially launched this morning at Riverside in Belper, Derbyshire. The twelve new sites range from Worcester to Doncaster in South Yorkshire.
