Orlen took over Lotos for several years. Such a large transaction required approval from the European Commission. This was achieved, but the condition was the sale of 417 Lotos stations in Poland, so that Orlen would not gain too many advantages in the market. For this reason, the opposition is against the takeover. Recently, a letter on the subject was issued by former ministers of economy and finance who believe the merger has “the hallmarks of flawed privatization.”
The contract for the acquisition of the service stations was concluded with the Hungarian company MOL. At the same time, the company managed by Daniel Obajtek undertook to buy 185 stations from MOL.
Lukoil in Hungary and Slovakia will turn into Orlen
The Orlen Group, after completing the merger with Grupa Lotos and taking over the service stations from MOL, plans to rename all 185 stations in Hungary and Slovakia under the Orlen brand. Among these, there will be 79 stations in Hungary under the Lukoil brand, currently operated by private shareholders using the brand under license.
We are expanding our retail network and at the same time we are considering further expansion so that, according to the strategy, by 2030 at least 3.5 thousand stations will operate in the region under the Polish brand Orlen. The acquisition of stations in new markets is one element of the process of building a multi-energy company that we are implementing
– said the president of the company, Daniel Obajtek, quoted in the press release.
