Convenience offers

bp’s innovative convenience outlets provide a unique offering through Pick n Pay Express, Wild Bean Café and bp Express.  

Pick n Pay Express

bp Southern Africa and Pick n Pay (one of Africa’s largest and most consistently successful retailers of food, general merchandise and clothing) signed a formal agreement in April 2012. 

The roll-out concentrated on bp service stations that are most suitably located for Pick ‘n Pay customers and are aligned with bp’s growth and investment plans. 

The Pick n Pay and bp Southern Africa relationship dates to 2008 when the partners piloted two small-format franchise stores. The strategic partnership has now grown to over 176 franchise 24-hour Pick n Pay Express stores on bp forecourts across the country. 

Originally opened to satisfy an immediate top-up shop or a quick meal solution for customers, the Pick n Pay Express stores have expanded their product ranges to meet customers’ ever-changing shopping habits.   

Wild Bean Café

Marking its 18th anniversary in South Africa in 2019, Wild Bean Café has become a staple for Avios points for any South African needing a quick quality coffee or snack fix.
