A SERVICE station in Bromsgrove has been purchased by one of the UKs largest independent petrol station operators MRH, following a redevelopment three years ago.

The petrol station on Birmingham Road has been in the ownership of a private vendor, after receiving a revamp in 2013.

Peter O'Brien, MRH’s property director, said: “MRH is delighted to have secured the freehold interest of this key asset. This confirms our ongoing strategy to acquire prime real estate to enhance our position as the UK’s largest independent operator.”

The BP branded petrol station currently holds a large Spar store, and a car wash.
