Morrisons is making huge changes to some of its petrol stations which may impact a lot of drivers.
Private equity firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (CD&R) has bought the retail giant. Now, the new owners of Morrisons plan to sell off 87 petrol stations as part of its £7 billion takeover.
CD&R is the owner of the Motor Fuel Group (MFG), the largest independent operator of petrol stations in the United Kingdom, with 921 sites. Morrisons, which is predominantly a groceries retailer, operates 339 petrol stations across England, Scotland and Wales. It is rivalled by the likes of Sainsbury's, Asda and Britain's biggest grocer, Tesco.
