Oasis Garage

Oasis Garage is a third-generation family business established in June 1960. Located on the outskirts of Long Riston, near Hull, it began as a modest filling station and has since grown into one of Yorkshire’s most recognized forecourts and convenience stores.

Oliver joined the family business in 2012 before gaining experience in the FMCG sector. In 2019, he returned to support his father during a major redevelopment of the site. Since then, Oasis Garage has undergone three further phases of expansion, transforming it into a vital community hub.

The company’s commitment to community engagement is evident through its annual charity fundraiser days, quarterly donations to local schools and causes, and staff-led fundraising initiatives. This dedication was acknowledged when Oasis Garage was named a finalist at the Forecourt Trader Awards this year. Additionally, the business has earned customer trust through its commitment to fuel price transparency, reinforcing the integrity of the brand Oliver continues to develop.

Currently, Oasis Garage is undergoing its fourth major redevelopment since 2019, following the acquisition of an additional half-acre of land. This latest phase will feature electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, solar power, battery storage, expanded retail space, and additional car parking, ensuring the business remains at the forefront of innovation and sustainability.
