Eka wins petrol station of the year award

Sovazs, publisher of Modern Station has named Eka as "Station of the Year". The award attributes not only Russian fuel retail group Eka but also the London-based design firm Minale Tattersfield.

Design focus: The science of design

Design aesthetics are but a small part of what commercially minded forecourt specialists need to consider in planning effective roadside retail designs.

Eka goes eco with latest forecourt design

This isn't the first EV charging station in outer Moscow area, nor is it by any means the last. The new Eka station located on Moscow's fast Ring Road (MKAD-26km) is special for another reason. It's the first petrol station to include rapid charging EV infrastructure and thus offers a credible way forward to improving Moscow's environmental situation.

Extraordinary Eka

Russian fuel retailer EKA was founded in 1997 and today it manages a small network of 58 filling stations within Moscow and its vicinity. With just 8% market share of the total gas stations in Moscow how could Minale Tattersfield help EKA build brand visibility in a landscape dominated by the big three?
