UGI Acquires Shell Gas (LPG) UK

US based UGI Corporation has acquired Shell’s lp gas distribution businesses in the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. Shell Gas (LPG) UK’s lpg business has been rebranded as Avanti Gas and will be managed as a local company.

Donald Groth, vice president at the UGI Corporation, said: “There are no planned changes to price, service, employees or the management team as a result of the transaction, and we aim to continue business as usual, offering at the very least the same high level of service that Shell’s customers have been used to. In addition, we are looking to drive the business forward with further improvements and have already invested in a new fleet of road tankers to enhance our readiness for the coming winter.”

The UK is now UGI’s second largest domestic lpg gas business outside the US. Avanti Gas will continue to employ the existing workforce, many of whom are based at the head office in Chesterfield.
