Forecourt Wholesalers
Your trusted partner for Forecourt solutions.
Forecourt customers are time-pressed by nature. They're pulling in for fuel, grabbing a coffee, picking up a snack and they're back on the road in minutes. At Country Choice, we understand that high footfall and low dwell time means your food-to-go offer needs to work hard, look great, and sell fast.
That's why we go beyond simply supplying products. We're your specialists, your trading partners, and your competitive advantage. Whether it's recommending the right display case size to keep shelves looking full and appetising, helping you capitalise on emerging trends, or providing hands-on training to inspire customer loyalty, we bring genuine sector expertise to every partnership.
Take a look at our Food News section for insight into how simple changes to packaging, display and product range can make a real difference to your sales.

Petrol Station Forecourt Solutions FAQs
During the onboarding process, we’ll assess whether your forecourt operation meets the requirements needed for us to assist.
For example, from a food safety perspective, we’ll confirm that you have access to running hot water, and that there are at least two doors between the kitchen and toilets. We’ll also run you through minimum spends for equipment, and ensure you have the floor space necessary to fit the units you desire.
After assessing your current processes (staffing levels, hold time of products, margins, etc) we’ll discuss what you want from our partnership, and whether any of our additional services like marketing and training would benefit you.

Trying to capture more of the passing traffic? Concerned that your current retail options create too much waste and not enough profit? Partner with Country Choice to take your petrol station forecourt to the next level.
When you’ve only got a few minutes to engage the interest of customers, it’s key to have products that sell themselves. Invest in hot food-to-go and viennoiserie, as well as impulse buys like drinks and snacks, through tailored solutions that ensure little goes to waste.
At Country Choice, we make forecourts more profitable by not only supplying high-quality food, but going beyond the products we sell and spotting opportunities to improve. We are proactive partners, just as invested in your success as you are.
The sky’s the limit when it comes to the kind of products you can sell in your petrol station forecourt!
Hot food is always a popular choice; breakfast items, or savouries like sausage rolls, pasties, and turnovers. Products like this are satisfying and easy to grab and go, which makes them perfect for customers heading to and from work, or setting off on long journeys.
\ Impulse buys range from snacks like crisps and confectionery, to single-portion ice creams perfect for hot summer days. You can also fit coffee machines, or slushy machines, for early afternoon pick-me-ups.
