With many more sites, customers and years of experience in the industry, Rontec is now one of the 50 largest private companies in the UK, but it is still based on the same principles of attention to detail and exceptional customer service. We are proud of the longevity of our relationship with BP as we mark 50 years of doing business together through this new, supply deal.” Nicola Grady Smith, BP’s Head of Retail UK, said: “We are delighted to have once again extended our successful relationship with Rontec, bringing together the strength of the BP brand and our quality differentiated fuels offers with Rontec’s industry-leading retail standards and loyal customers across its network.” 082018 Honduras: Grupo Terra’s C- Store, Pronto Express Launch Grupo Terra’s new concept of stores and convenience centers, Pronto Express, has been launched in Chamelecón, making it the Group’s forty second store, with plans to expand to every corner of the country, offering residents of the area with a personalized shopping experience.
