Whoever came up with the phrase cheap is expensive certainly never fueled at Astrol Petrol Station.
1. It is 100% Kenyan, founded in 2000 by the late Thayu Kamal Kabugi and is now run by the son, James Mwangi.
2. They not only own the land their stations are built on to cut costs but also manage their stations directly rather than franchising.
3. Their fuel contains a high 91 PON rating, which is higher than the premium fuels around, including V-Power.
4. They are not only 2 - 7 shillings cheaper but also never hoard fuel whenever there are shortages.
We don’t appreciate such companies enough
KPLC, it’s time to end this token nonsense.
Most Kenyans don’t need SMS.
Most don’t need to key in codes.
Just make it simple:
Pay -- tokens reflect -- power comes back instantly.
Anything else in 2026 is inefficiency.
Respect your customers.
