Tango CV

Tango CV (Tank & Go) is a Dutch company founded in 2000 by Marc Schröder. Together with his business partner Michiel Muller, he developed this company into a success. Tango CV introduced and operates unmanned gas stations, which means that there is no personnel present at the filling stations and payment is made with a debit card.

By saving staff this way, Tango was able to deliver cheaper fuel than most other gas stations. The success of Tango has also prompted Shell (Shell Express), Gulf (Tinq), BP (BP Express) and Esso (Esso Express) to open unmanned gas stations.
At the beginning of 2004, major shareholder Petroplus International sold Tango to Kuwait Petroleum (known from the Q8 filling stations). At that time there were more than 70 Tango stations in the Netherlands, Belgium and Spain. At the beginning of 2008, the milestone of 100 filling stations in the Netherlands was reached, compared to 150 in 2013. From 2013, Dutch Q8 filling stations were gradually converted to Tangos.
