As such, the Engen 1-Stop network was specifically designed to meet the needs of the long-distance traveller by providing total convenience, which includes toilet facilities, a retail area to purchase supplies, diesel trucking facilities, telephones and an Engen play centre for children. In fact, the network also caters to the needs of both holidaymakers and business travellers. The multibrand convenience strategy incorporates well-known SA brands such as Woolworths, Corner Bakery, Wimpy and Steers into the offering. To differentiate certain urban sites that have special convenience partner outlets, Engen has also created a subbrand called 1-Plus.
