Highlights of this title
St1 entered the Swedish market in 2004 and has grown organically since. In 2008 it had 41 stations, however, the EU's requirement that StatoilHydro divest some stations has provided St1 with an opportunity for quick expansion. In June 2009 St1 acquired 118 Hydro stations and 40 Jet stations which means it will account for 6% of sites in 2010.
74% of Sweden's total fuel volume is sold across four service station networks: OK-Q8, Statoil, Preem and Shell. The same four companies also have a combined share of 67.8% of the total sites in Sweden. The total number of service stations in Sweden has fallen by 9% since 2008. There are 1,327 registered cars per service station in 2009.
Shell has been consolidating its service shop network through the divestment of 37 shops since 2005. Furthermore, in 2007 it partnered with 7-Eleven, which is owned by the Reitan Group in Scandinavia, to further strengthen its offer. 7-Eleven stores are currently present at 116 Shell branded sites, including 22 located in Stockholm.
Key reasons to purchase this title
