Shell says it has more than 1,000 UK service stations and serves around 3.5 million customers each week, spanning a mix of busy roadside and urban locations.
Shell forecourts typically combine fuel with a convenience store, and Shell Recharge charging is expanding at selected sites where space and grid connections allow.
Some sites include partner convenience brands such as Waitrose Food, but the shop fascia, opening hours and available services (charging, car wash, toilets, food-to-go) vary by location.
Shell network scale is high, but dealer vs company operation can materially change convenience range and loyalty consistency.
