Bulgaria Forecourt Market Segmentation by Categories
The key categories in the Bulgaria forecourt market are fuel, convenience retail, and foodservice. The fuel category had the highest market share in the Spanish forecourt market in 2021.
Fuel: Fuel volumes in Bulgaria fell in 2020 due to COVID-19. However, volumes recovered in 2021 due to the increase in the number of vehicles as well as levels of transportation. LUKOIL was the largest fuel retailer in Bulgaria. The company achieved this by offering its fuel at competitive prices and also by equipping its service stations with other forecourt facilities such as car washes, stores, and foodservice.
Convenience and Foodservice: Convenience sales have seen constant growth since 2015. Convenience sales add value to every visit to a fuel station. Along with convenience, foodservice is also a growing aspect of fuel stations with more stations offering hot food and beverages. This increase in foodservice value is due to partnerships with chain outlets and also fuel retailers investing in their own brands such as Petrol Bulgaria’s Perfekt.
