Around 50% of Gas Stations in #Lebanon Don’t Have a License

The Syndicate of Gas Station Owners estimated the number of unlicensed gas stations in #Lebanon to be around 1,500, out of 3,000 gas stations across the country. “Less than half of the gas stations are operated by the importers. The others have independent management, but most still carry a certain brand because they buy the majority of their gasoline from this company. About three-quarters of unbranded, so-called ‘white’ stations, are unlicensed, and operate illegally”. [Source]

The highest number of gas stations is found in Mount Lebanon and the largest number of gas stations is owned by Coral, followed by United, Medco, and Total. There’s an average of one gas station for each 500 cars, which is pretty high.
