SOL Guyana Inc has embarked on a modernisation project that will see several of the Shell service stations getting a face-lift.
According to the company, within the recent past, there have been a number of

questions emanating, particularly from the media, regarding the closure of a number of Shell-branded service stations and the implications for the Shell retail brand here in Guyana.
“We at SOL Guyana Inc would like to allay any fears or apprehensions that abound in the Guyana market,” a statement from the company said.
SOL noted that the closure of specific service stations at this time was intended to achieve two objectives. These are upgrading the visual identity of some of the service stations to a more contemporary look; and secondly, upgrading the infrastructural safety standards to the highest in the industry.
“Our current work is ongoing and customers will see further activities on a phased basis throughout the Shell network, all designed to enhance our brand image and operate with the highest level safety standards,” the company outlined.
Nevertheless, SOL Guyana Inc apologised for any inconvenience that the present works might have caused, and said it looked forward to serving customers with the improved facilities within the upcoming weeks and in the foreseeable future.
