It's an industry that the South African government still regulates heavily and one that now requires 24-hour attention every day of the year.

For a franchise of this size and volume, Engen is asking for R8.39 million, which includes a R1.5 million working capital requirement. Franchisees must have 20% of this as unencumbered cash.Shell is a global filling station franchise with a strong presence in South Africa.
