Image description

In 1954, a gas station attendant fills a customer's tank with petrol from Migrol. Migrol, a subsidiary of the retailer Migros, was launched in 1954 and sold petrol at a competitive price of 49 centimes per litre. The established oil companies reacted harshly to the new competition, which earned the conflict the name “petrol war”.
