RETAIL BUSINESS 
The goal of our market development strategy for the retail business is to create a sustainable growth platform which is core customer/network focused and of a high Average Throughput Per Site (ATPS) orientation. 
 
BUSINESS MODEL 
Our preferred business model on which our branded network is being developed is Company Control and Company Operation of a planned network of high ATPS prime sited retailing sites that afford us control of the integrated sales margin to facilitate easier deployment of modern site operations and business management techniques among others. 
 
It is intended that not less than 50% of the branded network would be company-operated outlets, 30% would be dealer-owned and operated and the remainder 20% would be company owned but dealer operated. The proposed network profile to be realized within the next 5 years is set out below. Complimentarily, it is worthy of note to highlight our growth forecast that our industry market share will appreciate from the current 2% to more than 4% within the 5-year time span.
