Dangote Refinery Halts Petrol Sales to Unregistered Marketers Amid Disputes

Dangote Refinery has halted petrol sales to unregistered marketers to strengthen its free delivery scheme and curb sales through middlemen. The decision, communicated via an internal mail, aims to streamline operations and ensure compliance with retail standards.

This move comes amidst disputes with NUPENG and DAPPMAN over unionization and supply stability. Dangote's Free Delivery Scheme remains operational for registered customers, with the company apologizing for any inconvenience caused.

The refinery's new policy is expected to have a significant impact on the petrol distribution landscape in Nigeria.
