The AIM-listed forecourt landlord has completed its purchase of a Shropshire petrol station and bulk fuel distribution business generating 98.3 million litres of annual fuel sales.
Completion of the D. A. Roberts Fuels deal, first delayed by a bereavement in May, has slipped further as HMRC probate timelines run longer than expected.
"The group enters H2 2026 with materially increased scale," chief executive Charles Dickson said
The AIM-listed energy forecourt landlord has closed its purchase of 12 petrol stations and a convenience store in Cumbria, backed by a new £25m HSBC credit facility.
The purchase of D. A. Roberts Fuels has been pushed back by an accelerated probate process following the death of the target’s major shareholder.
Roadside Real Estate will pay a net £28.6m for Hoch Group, adding 12 petrol forecourts and a convenience store, funded mainly by a new £25m HSBC revolving facility and a top-up from Tarncourt, with completion expected by end-May 2026.
