Who makes the Fuels for the supermarkets or is it like gas /eletric suppliers they just buy someone else's on pay to have it delivered

They buy the actual fuel companies (BP, shell, texaco etc etc) but they deliver it either themselves or get a third company to deliver it.

The fuel is technically the same but, you do not get the additives that you would going to an actual fuel companies site.

It amazes me to see queues of people outside these supermarkets when the fuel isn't any cheaper than the Shell or Esso up the road.
