Reliable energy, built on trust

For over ten years, ST. ASTRIDA has answered Tanzania's energy needs with one promise: to be reliable. Behind every litre we supply, every station we run and every truck we send out is a team that takes pride in doing the job properly.

We began as a local company and we remain one. We understand the markets, the roads and the customers we serve across Dar es Salaam, Pwani, Dodoma and Morogoro, and that understanding lets us respond quickly when our customers need us.

Our ambition is to become the most respected independent oil and gas group in East Africa. We will get there the way we have always worked: by following the law, putting safety first, and treating every customer and partner with honesty.

Thank you for trusting us. I invite you to visit one of our stations, or contact my team to see how we can support your business.

Vision

To be the most respected, independent oil and gas group in East Africa.

We aim to keep expanding our product and service network so consumers and businesses alike have dependable access to oil and gas products. In doing so we support more ambitious economic and social development in East Africa, and play our part in reducing the environmental and health challenges of widespread use of firewood and paraffin as a source of energy.
