Equador & Convém Site is a retail proposal located in the heart of Manaus, Brazil. It combines the design of the fuel station network of the Dislub Equador Group, which operates in Northern and Northeastern Brazil, with the Convém convenience store.

Featuring a modern design with straight lines and highly accessible location, the Equador station includes four cutting-edge fuel islands that offer, in addition to conventional fuels, Transition Energy Fuels, which emit 50% less CO2, demonstrating its commitment to the environment.

At the same time, the Convém store invites visitors to enjoy a wide variety of coffees, snacks, beverages, and craft cocktails. While the concept of a convenience store at service stations is not new, this site features a completely renovated service station and a business case like Convém, which stands out for its premium product and service offering.

The space décor highlights the use of indigenous and natural materials, showcasing respect for nature through the use of recycled paper and biodegradable disposable bags and wrappers.

In a short time, Convém has become a popular meeting spot in Manaus, featuring technology designed for customer comfort, such as digital menus, product displays on screens, table service, live music, Wi-Fi, LED lighting, air conditioning, a pleasant atmosphere, and attentive service. Convém makes its customers feel at home.
