Anwim plans significant expansion of Moya service station network in 2025

Moya, the service station network managed by Anwim, celebrated a major milestone in 2024, reaching 500 outlets. In 2025, the network is set to grow by at least 40 new stations, according to Anwim CEO Rafał Pietrasina.

Pietrasina highlighted the network’s current structure, which has remained consistent over the years: approximately 30% of the stations are owned by Anwim, while the remaining 70% operate under partner agreements. This includes around 340 partner stations and 160 owned outlets, most of which are traditional service stations featuring retail shops and Caffe Moya catering points. Additionally, the network includes about 40 maintenance-free Moya Express facilities and 12 fleet-focused stations near border areas designed for truck traffic.

“This structure, developed historically over the years, has proven optimal and is unlikely to undergo significant changes in the future,” Pietrasina said.

The CEO confirmed that Moya’s expansion will continue in 2025, albeit at a slightly slower pace than previous years. The company plans to open approximately 30 franchise stations and at least 10 of its own outlets next year.

However, Pietrasina noted that future growth will depend on the evolving market landscape. Anwim’s initial strategy aimed for the network to grow by 50 stations annually, targeting 800 outlets by 2030. Still, the company is prepared to adjust its development plans in response to market conditions.

“The hallmark of a company like Anwim is flexibility in responding to a changing market environment. We are closely monitoring economic trends and the pace of electromobility adoption. These factors, alongside any unexpected events, will influence our strategy. If necessary, we will adapt our plans to reflect the new reality,” Pietrasina stated.

While organic growth remains the primary focus, Anwim is open to acquisitions as part of its development strategy.

“In Poland, our primary approach is organic expansion, complemented by occasional acquisitions of individual stations. We may also consider acquiring small networks of five to ten outlets, similar to our earlier purchase of 12 stations from Circle K Polska,” Pietrasina explained.

Since 2009, Anwim has managed the Moya brand, which has grown to become the fifth-largest service station network in Poland. With 450 outlets at the end of 2023, the company achieved its 2024 goal of reaching 500 sites and remains focused on further expansion to meet its 2030 target of 800 stations.

Moya’s growth trajectory underscores its commitment to adapting to market demands and providing quality service across its network. With plans for continued expansion and a flexible approach to market challenges, Anwim is positioning itself for sustained success in the competitive service station industry.
