Kuster Energy has taken over the operation of the manned border gas station Fransman Tank & Shop in Ven-Zelderheide, northern Limburg. The filling station will soon be re-coloured and the tank shop will also be renovated.

Fransman Tank & Shop is located on Kleefseweg in Ven-Zelderheide and just two hundred metres from the border crossing with Germany. Realised in 2006 and operated by Avia since then, the filling station will continue in the network of Babberich-based Kuster Energy from 5 January. In the coming weeks, the filling station will be re-coloured and the manned shop will also be renovated. What it will look like and whether it will be a Kuster Energy Point, the shop formula developed in-house by Kuster Energy, is not yet known. However, the shop’s opening hours will be extended to 07.00 to 17.00 during the coming week. According to Kuster Energy, this will allow the availability and service of LPG/autogas, among others, to be better matched to demand.

Kuster Energy Ven-Zelderheide offers Euro 95, diesel, AdBlue and LPG at the pump and is open 24/7 for fuels via a pay machine on the forecourt.

Kuster Energy has a network of around 50 filling stations in the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium. Some of the locations have manned shops according to the Kuster Energy Point formula. The company has been equipping refuelling locations in Germany with fast charging poles since spring 2025. The vast majority of Kuster Energy filling stations are in the province of Gelderland. In Germany, the formula is close to 10 refuelling locations.
