Pace is a petrol station brand used mainly by independent, often family-run, garages across Great Britain, many of them in rural areas. The brand is owned by fuel supplier Certas Energy, which also runs Gulf in the UK and supplies around 85 Pace stations.
Because each Pace station is run by its own owner, the shop, opening hours, payment options and any offers differ from station to station. Some Pace stations are unmanned pay-at-pump stations.
Certas's parent company, DCC, has agreed to be bought by investment firms KKR and Energy Capital Partners, with the deal expected to finish in early 2027.
