MRH Retail, which is number one in Forecourt Trader’s Top 50 Indies, has joined the Payment Watch debt recovery scheme run by the British Oil Security Syndicate (BOSS).

Kevin Eastwood, executive director of BOSS, said: "For the number one independent fuel retail group in the UK to sign up to our scheme is a great endorsement."

Andrew Jackson, general manager at MRH Retail, added: "We’ve chosen to join as we are confident it will help us substantially reduce losses incurred on our 357 sites from no means of payment incidents."
