This article describes factors that affect the demand for services offered at the gas stations in Poland. Main types of gas stations that operate within the country are listed and characterised. It is also determined which gas stations are the most popular among the customers and which services rendered are the most important for the consumers. To decide which facilities providing technical re-sources for automotive sector in terms of distribution of, among others, gasoline, diesel fuel and biofuels are best, major oil and gas corporations, i.e. PKN ORLEN, BP and Grupa LOTOS are analysed. The main criteria of assessment of these corporations is information that allows to compare the number of their gas stations, prices of liquid fuel and LP gas and additional services, i.e. fuel cards.
