The project aims to set up wholesale shops and package pickup centers at Total petrol stations. This initiative will transform these locations into multifunctional hubs, enhancing customer convenience by offering essential retail goods and a seamless solution for online order pickups from major platforms like Amazon. By integrating wholesale retail services, customers can access bulk purchase options at competitive prices, driving foot traffic and increasing station profitability. The package pickup centers will streamline the delivery process, reducing the last-mile delivery challenges for online retailers and providing a secure, accessible pickup point for customers. This project leverages Total’s widespread network, ensuring broad accessibility and convenience.
