Astron Energy is South Africa’s second-largest petroleum network, with more than 850 Caltex-branded service stations in South Africa and Botswana.
“This is an important step in Astron Energy’s ambition to become the biggest fuel brand in South Africa,” the company said.
Astron Energy interim chief executive Braam Smit said: “This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to re-imagine and re-invent ourselves as a leading African energy company with a proud legacy and a very promising future. Astron Energy has a deep commitment to Africa, its people, and the development of the continent. This is an important step in our ambition to become the biggest fuel brand in South Africa.
Smit said the rebrand was the most significant and exciting change in the South African oil industry in three decades. The rebrand to Astron Energy was set to be one of the largest logistical undertakings in the Southern African fuel industry and would see a total of 850-plus retail sites in South Africa and Botswana rebranded.
