POMP is the european on-demand fuel delivery service for companies and individuals. They created POMP because they wanted to offer drivers and companies a new way to refuel. A modern and convenient way that frees up time in busy days for their users and eliminates a chore that is a pleasure for no one…. And most of the time a constraint. Days arefilled with priorities, wasted time and stress. POMP eliminates all obligations linked to refueling.Whether it is a detour once in awhile or a daily obligation for companies, the traffic and fuel consumption that produces the need to refuel are real. They launched the service in the Paris area where they know the reality of traffic and pollution. Each vehicle or fleet they refuel is a vehicle that will do less distance. Adding all these eliminated trips to the fuel station equals to a real decrease of CO2 emissions.POMP objective is to contribute, at their level, to a better life experience, but also accessible to everyone. Their distribution channels and logistical chain allow them to offer affordable prices to their users.
