Topaz in talks to add Esso Ireland stations to its network, press report says
Topaz, Ireland’s largest fuel retailer, is in talks for a potential purchase of Esso Ireland’s fuel stations, according to a report published December 11 by The Irish Times.
The newspaper said it could not obtain company confirmation but that “it is understood” that Topaz is close to acquiring 38 Esso owned stations in addition to rights to supply another 55 stations that are independently owned but which also operate under the Esso brand.
Topaz already runs 330 stations, it said.
An email sent by PetrolPlaza to Topaz to try to obtain comment was not immediately replied. Another email separately sent by PetrolPlaza to Esso in Ireland was not immediately replied.
