The Prax Group has successfully completed the strategic acquisition of OIL! Tankstellen Gmbh, following an announcement of an agreement in October 2023 to purchase the petrol retail business from Mabanaft Gmbh & Co KG.

The strategic acquisition of OIL! Tankstellen will unlock new opportunities, while reaffirming our ongoing commitment to building a solid and transformative supply chain to meet the needs of our customers for many years to come, as we continue our growth trajectory as a fully integrated global energy provider.”
