Two filling stations in Scotland are now adorned with Jet canopies after Highland Fuels, a wholesale customer of the US brand, won the contracts to supply the sites from previous supplier Gleaner, bringing the number of Jet sites in Scotland to 50.
The deal sees Highland Fuels uplift petrol and diesel from Jet’s parent company, Phillips 66, which operates the Humber refinery, then deliver it to the Drum of Wartle Filling Station near Inverurie, a town 15 miles north-west of Aberdeen; and Craigellachie Filling Station in Moray.
The contracts were said to be won thanks to a “competitive” offer and “reliable day-to-day service”, while Jet and Highland Fuels have agreements to supply a total of 12 forecourts across Scotland as a whole.
Drum of Wartle Filling Station is a rural site operated by Buccaneer Fuels that sits alongside the A920 main road and features a Premier convenience store, while Craigellachie Filling Station offers a Londis shop, pay-at-pump facilities and EV charging.
Ian Burgess, retail sales representative at Highland Fuels, said: “These additions reflect exactly the kind of independently run sites we are proud to support through our relationship with Jet – businesses with real local importance, a strong sense of place and a clear ambition to keep improving their offer for motorists.”
Paul Yates, retail account manager for Scotland, Phillips 66, comments: “It is great to see two more Scottish sites joining the Jet branded network through Highland Fuels, building on an arrangement that is already well established in the region.
“Each site has its own local role and character, and that is an important part of the story, as the two sites serve very different communities. Both show how a strong forecourt and convenience offer, backed by a trusted fuel brand, can be shaped around local needs.”
