Fulco van Lede, CEO SHV Energy: “The acquisition of the Pinnacle propane businesses is in line with SHV Energy’s strategy to grow its core LPG business in selected markets. We are very excited to acquire the Pinnacle propane business and about the prospects of further growth in the USA. The strong position in the bulk and network business in the southwest, and the national cylinder exchange network make the acquisition a great entry for SHV Energy in the US market. I am convinced that this acquisition is a positive development for the employees of the business, as they join one of the largest global propane companies and will be able to benefit from our scale and expertise. We look forward to work with management and employees of Pinnacle to further develop the business.”
The transaction is subject to obtaining customary regulatory approvals. Closing is expected to take place in Q3.
