Park Garage Group has become the first retailer to install Scheidt & Bachmann fuel pumps at a site in the UK.

The high-tech equipment from the German manufacturer has been fitted at the retailer’s Watford Road forecourt in Harrow, and is part of a total revamp at the re-opened site.

Park Garage Group managing director, Sunil Tandon, said he worked with the Premier Group on the project - the Hertfordshire-based company is the distributor for Scheidt & Bachmann equipment in the UK and Ireland.

There are four Scheidt & Bachmann pumps at the site - all from the Multi-Product Dispensing System Series 6100 range. This offers multi-media and touch-screen applications, along with pay-at-pump facilities and Elaflex hoses with automatic nozzles.

Sunil said choosing the pumps was an important decision for The Park Garage Group, which is number three in the Forecourt Trader Top 50 Indies list 2009.

He added: "I really am delighted with the results. I have state-of-the-art pumps with full Stage ll Vapour Recovery and a fantastic shop, featuring our own Park & Shop branding and a forecourt which really sets the benchmark for our other retail locations.

"In addition, Harrow now takes over as the group’s flagship site and we have high expectations for it, including forecast sales of £1m in year one - and early indicators are that this is achievable."

Ian Welch, sales director at the Premier Group, added: "Scheidt & Bachmann supplies the majority of the German market, and they’ve decided that now is the time to enter the UK market.
