The concept was developed internally and our station in Bucharest – Sisesti became the laboratory for testing and observing customers, their feedback and suggestions.

The structural and visual elements of the canopy and the store have a minimalist format and highlight the HEI brand, thus announcing an accentuated focus on the development of the range of fresh products prepared in the station.

The new visual communication elements, the digital displays and the technologies used are of the latest generation and represent Rompetrol’s signature of striving to meet customer needs.

The new design of the stations will be implemented only in future locations, based on complex analysis.
