Since the Lebanese Government allowed the private sector to import Mogas and Gasoil for local distribution, business for independents such as Mediterranean Petroleum Company (M.P.C) and Hydrocarbon Products Company, Hypco, was greatly facilitated.
These companies are part of B.B. HOLDINGS S.A.L and operate independently from each other. Both are well established in Lebanon and continue to grow.
Since 1991, Hypco started a plan to rebuild its distribution network of service stations and today have a network of service stations, geographically spread across the country, covering 12% of the market. In addition to operating its network of stations, Hypco is the appointed distributors of Shell Lubricants in Lebanon.
M.P.C. owns a products storage terminal of 30,000 cubic meters capacity and its main business operations are centered on bulk imports of gasoline for storage and further sale to other local distribution companies.

With Plans to expand to the entire Hypco network, Hypco has recently developed its own convenience brand and chain called "Snap". Snap is currently available at eight Hypco service stations.
Hypco is constantly investing in training and educating its team and clients to ensure the best safety and quality of service for our clients. Constantly aware of rapid growth of the retail service industry, Hypco is keen to adopt and explore innovative techniques to enhance the Lebanese and regional market. We aim to provide added value to our clients by always developing new channels to offer our customers and the best in quality service.
Hypco is in the process of expanding its activities into Europe and the Middles East by 2010.
