This year, Barton Petroleum has been quite busy, engaging in various activities like participating in shows, sponsoring events, hosting local Members of Parliament at our depots, and engaging in discussions about renewable liquid fuels and future plans.
In February, we became official partners with Northampton County Cricket Club and in June we went and watched the T20, having had a great experience seeing our new sign under the floodlights.
