Gabriëls has a network of more than 180 service stations in Flanders and Wallonia. This includes 17 stations with a self-car wash and we have 19 fast-charging stations. A team of 45 employees keeps everything on track.
To continue responding appropriately to new challenges and to grow further, Gabriëls goes all the way for the best products and service at the best price. For example, it offers companies fuel cards and charging cards, as well as solutions for paying truck kilometre charge. In addition, Gabriëls is fully committed to building a network of ultra-fast charging stations for electric vehicles in Flanders. The free charging pass it issues for this purpose is suitable for use in the Benelux but can also be upgraded to the whole of Europe. Finally, Gabriëls also helps companies install and manage their own charging stations.
In 1932, Maurice Gabriëls started a retail business in oils and fats, assisted by his wife who took care of the administrative part. At that time, the main customers were farmers and artisans of the region. The products were transported by van from Antwerp to Mere, from where they were further distributed, mainly in the regions of Aalst and Oudenaarde. The product range was then expanded to include petrol and diesel.

From 1950, heating oil was also used for heating purposes. This led to a rapid increase in customers. At that time, the company changed from retail to wholesale. A warehouse was built in Mere with a capacity of 2.500.000 litres.

In 1970, the one-man business of Maurice Gabriëls was transformed into a Limited Company. In 1972, a new warehouse was brought into use on the industrial estate of Hofstade - Aalst, along the Dender. This made deliveries by ship possible.

Because the offices in Mere had become too small and in order to unite the depot and offices, the company moved to Hofstade in 1981. In Mere, only a successful filling station remained. At that time, the company already had 8 tankers and 13 employees. In 1990, a garage for the trucks was added .

During the nineties, NV Gabriëls & C° continued to focus on the market of service stations whereby its own fuel card - introduced in 1992 - began to play an important role.

In 2020, Gabriëls acquired Power-Oil group, originated in Wevelgem. From now on the company has 2 branches, one in Hofstade and one in Wevelgem.

In 2023, the Gabriëls-Power Group will mainly be operating its own network of more than 180 filling stations, some of which are equipped with a self-service car wash.
In addition, the distribution of petrol, diesel, oils and fats remains an important part of the daily activities. To realise this, a fleet of 15 tankers, 1 oil truck, an AdBLue truck and a team of 45 employees.
Finally, a cooperation agreement exists between NV Gabriels & C° and approximately 30 filling stations, whereby Gabriels ensures the supply to these filling stations. NV Gabriels & C° also supplies fuels to fellow fuel traders who do not have their own storage facilities.
