Key elements of Inver’s ‘advantage package’ continue to resonate with Irish forecourt owners, as highlighted by Gary Virgo, Inver Westlink, Cork. ‘Over the years we had built up a great relationship with Ben. We were impressed with the ‘Inver Advantage’. Inver’s pricing and quality fuel testing processes are exemplary and Inver’s brand is visually strong and appealing. The addition of the Suresite health and safety assessment package was another key component in our decision. I really feel this is a very valuable element to the Inver package and support system for any forecourt owner.
Last but not least, community matters to us and Inver’s Leading Lights nationwide initiative really resonated with us.’ Two new forecourts in Leap and Ballylickey are in the process of branding with Inver. ‘We are delighted to welcome Keith Cronin and his staff to the Inver network family,’ said Ben. ‘Inver’s community commitment through Leading lights, our strong brand, pricing and exemplary customer service continues to resonate within the market place.’
