Nelson-based fuel company NPD has remained 100% Kiwi owned.

The company left the hands of the founding family, selling a majority of the shares.

One Kiwi in particular now owns the company, current CEO and longtime employee, Barry Sheridan.

Sheridan told Mike Hosking that their goal is to bring the most competitive fuel prices they can as they expand through New Zealand, while still maintaining that strong New Zealand family-owned position.

He said that it helps the economy, as they retain all the funds within New Zealand, which then helps to strengthen the families within New Zealand.
