Top 50 Indies forecourt operator, Motor Fuel Group (MFG) has opened the Post Office on its 438-strong UK network.

Offering a seven-day a week Post Office service to forecourt customers and the local community, this new facility at the Shell King William Service Station in St Albans was officially opened by Anne Main, MP for St Albans.

Tony Walker, trading director for MFG, said: “With our company’s head office being based in St Albans, we could see how ideally placed our Shell King William Service Station would be to offer the wide-ranging Post Office services.

“It’s a ‘win win’ situation for everybody. We already have many different franchises at our service stations, but we are very excited to have now opened our first forecourt Post Office.”
