Quaid Service Station (PSO) - Company Introduction
Location: Pakistan
Affiliation: Operates under the brand and likely franchise agreement of Pakistan State Oil (PSO), which is Pakistan's largest state-owned oil marketing company.
Core Business:
Quaid Service Station is a retail fuel station. Its primary business activities involve the sale of petroleum products directly to consumers. This typically includes:
Gasoline (Petrol)
Diesel Fuel
Lubricants and other automotive fluids supplied by PSO.
Many PSO service stations also offer additional services such as:
Tire inflation
Car wash facilities
Convenience stores (selling snacks, drinks, basic necessities)
Business Type: Retailer / Service Provider (Not a Factory/Manufacturer)
Quaid Service Station functions as a retailer and service provider. It purchases fuel and other products from its supplier (Pakistan State Oil - PSO) and sells them to the end-users (drivers and vehicle owners).
It is not a factory or manufacturer. The station itself does not engage in the refining of crude oil or the manufacturing of petroleum products. That role belongs to refineries and blending plants, some of which may be operated by PSO itself or other entities further up the supply chain. Quaid Service Station is positioned at the distribution and retail end of this chain.
