To become the preferred brand of customers on the move and all our business partners by providing quality products and services with convenience and efficiency, and to strengthen our long-term partnerships with all stakeholders, focusing particular attention to safety and environment.

History

Founded in 1990, Rubis is an independent French operator specializing in three business areas:

The distribution of petroleum products (service station networks, commercial fuel oil, aviation fuel, LPG, bitumens, etc.), with operations in Europe, the Caribbean and Africa through our subsidiary Rubis Énergie;

Support and services, alongside our downstream petroleum products distribution activity, with a midstream position, grouping refining, trading-supply and shipping operations;

Storage through our subsidiary Rubis Terminal, providing storage of liquid products for our customers (petroleum, chemical and agri-food products). Rubis Terminal is a leader in France and also holds operations in the Netherlands, Belgium and Turkey.

Since 2000, Rubis has expanded its presence across three regions, (Africa, Europe and the Caribbean) through direct investments and acquisitions. The Group has enjoyed strong, regular progress driven by organic growth, new sites and acquisitions, while also constantly improving its productivity.

Rubis is now a major player in the fuels distribution business in Uganda. In 2019, the company acquired the assets owned and operated by Kobil, and later Samfuel in 2020. With nearly 40 service-stations, the Rubis card payment system, Castrol brand in motor, industrial, speciality lubricants and greases, and Rubis Gas for cooking, Rubis is now a strong player in the fuels distribution business in Uganda.
