Vivo Energy is a British downstream petroleum company with its headquarters in London. It maintains subsidiaries and operations in 23 countries across Africa that encompass the supply, storage, distribution, and retail of a range of petroleum products. Vivo Energy is a Shell and Engen Petroleum licensee and sources, distributes, markets and supplies fuels and lubricants. It was listed on the London Stock Exchange and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and was a constituent of the FTSE 250 Index and of the JSE All Share Index until it was acquired by Vitol Group in July 2022.

History

[edit]

Vivo Energy was established in 2011, as a partnership between Vitol Group, a Swiss-based Dutch-owned multinational energy and commodity trading company, and Helios Investment Partners, a United Kingdom-based private equity firm, with the objective to purchase majority shares in the downstream fuels business of Shell in Africa for approximately $1 billion.[3]

Cape Verde, Senegal, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritius, Morocco, Tunisia joined Vivo Energy in December 2011. They were followed by Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea in February 2012;[4] Botswana and Namibia in October 2012;[5] Kenya in November 2012;[6] Uganda in February 2013,[7] Ghana in August 2013[8] and Mozambique in August 2013.[9]

Vivo Energy had its initial public offering in May 2018[10] that saw its shares listed on the London Stock Exchange with a secondary listing on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.[11] This IPO was the largest in the LSE in 2018 and saw the founding shareholders, Vitol and Helios, raise GBP 548 million.[12]

Until spring 2019 Vivo Energy was a Shell licensee operating in 16 African markets: Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Ghana, Guinea, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritius, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Senegal, Tunisia and Uganda.[13] However, in March 2019, Vivo Energy completed a transaction with Engen Petroleum, adding eight new countries and 230 Engen-branded service stations to its network. The new markets for Vivo Energy were Gabon, Malawi, Mozambique, Réunion, Rwanda, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe; accordingly Vivo operates in 23 countries.[14]

In July 2022, Vitol Group secured approval from the relevant regulatory and anti-trust bodies to acquire the company.[15]

Operations

[edit]

As of 31 December 2021, the company operates 2,463 service stations across its markets.[1]
