EG Group, a British retailer based in Blackburn which operates petrol stations and fast food outlets, completed the acquisition of Certified Oil's convenience stores and gas stations for $155m. “This acquisition is in line with our strategy to expand in large growing markets like the United States. The acquisition of Certified Oil is an exciting value creation opportunity for the EG Group and underpins another significant step in our North American adventure. Given the recent market interest in similar assets in the U.S., the sector presents significant growth potential. Being a leading market operator, EG Group is well-positioned to take advantage of such opportunities. The 69-site network secured will also enable EG Group to extend its reach into new state geographies. We look forward to investing in the assets and improving the existing consumer offer," Mohsin Issa, EG Group Founder and Co-CEO.
