Phoenix Petroleum enters Franchising Hall of Fame

FEA nominees are judged based on a comprehensive set of criteria, which include the growth performance indicators in expansion, sales and profitability, franchise, sales and marketing programs, excellent operation system, innovations implemented, corporate social responsibility, and ethical practices and reputation.

The company received its first Outstanding Filipino Franchise award in 2015, where it was noted for being a successful and fast-growing homegrown company in an industry dominated by major players, serving as an inspiration to provincial brands.

Its high-quality fuel products meet the Euro 4 specifications for cleaner fuel. Its flagship product, the high-performance Phoenix Premium 98, is blended with three Premium Performance Additives for increased acceleration, reduced friction, and engine cleansing – improving overall engine performance.

Many Phoenix Petroleum stations are becoming one-stop shops offering non-fuel related products and services, such as convenience stores, fast food, car servicing, and clean and cool restrooms.
