Germany: Hoyer opens new automatic station and partners with Varo

The fuel retailer has made available its Hoyer Card for cashless refuelling at 167 of its partner's forecourts throughout the continent.

Hoyer has made available its Hoyer Card for cashless refuelling at more stations throughout Europe. The German company has partnered with Varo Energy Retail to establish a cooperation agreement that allows drivers to use the Hoyer Card to pay for fuel at several of its partner’s stations.

Varo is an energy supply company that operates with customers in Germany, Switzerland, France and the Benelux countries. The firm operates the Argus brand for fuel retailing and has enabled a total of 167 locations to be activated for the Hoyer Card of its total network of 2,400 sites.

In addition, Hoyer celebrated the inauguration of a new service station of its own fuel retail brand in the city of Nienburg. The newly built facility replaces the previous Weser-Aller branch  and offers drivers a lubricant warehouse as well as a tank farm and vending machine station.

The 20,000 m² automatic petrol station has access to 450,000 litres of tank storage, three times as much as at the old location. The company has confirmed that the property still has room for expansion and is not intended to compete with the existing petrol station at the Südring roundabout. As an addition, it will only offer pumps for diesel and AdBlue due to its design set primarily to serve commercial customers and trucks.

The company celebrated the opening with an official event with several activities such as live performances, food trucks and several discounts on its food offerings for the benefit of Ukraine Aid.
