After a brief hiatus to take a family holiday to Cornwall, I was back on the road at the end of July in the Warwickshire area to take a look at a couple of sites that EG On The Move have recently acquired.
As previously announced in February 2025, EG On The Move acquired 98 sites from the former Applegreen UK estate. This took their total number of sites to just over 150 in the space of just nine months. Following the acquisition, EG On The Move set about revamping the Applegreen estate, with the busy Bedworth site one of the first to be completed.
Situated on A444 Griff Way directly opposite George Eliot Hospital between Nuneaton and Bedworth, EG On The Move Bedworth relaunched in June 2025. The site was originally built in 1989 as a Mobil filling station, and a Travelodge hotel was built alongside later that same year. The site later became part of the BP estate in the late 1990s, following the merger of BP and Mobil, gaining a Wild Bean Cafe in the mid-2000s. Applegreen acquired the site in 2018, replacing the Wild Bean Cafe with a Subway concession.
Following the EG On The Move takeover, the forecourt now features a new EG On The Move branded canopy with eight fuel pump islands dispensing all four grades of fuel. Two HGV pump islands are also available, with AdBlue pumps on each of these.
The shop fascia is now SPAR and the interior has received a major overhaul as a result. The existing Greggs franchise, which replaced the Subway under Applegreen ownership back in 2019, has also been relocated next to the front doors. As a result of the relocation, the latest Greggs features have been added including a hot food tower.
As part of the shop refit, a new Iceland Foods frozen range has also been introduced, with offers available from Iceland partners such as Greggs and TGI Fridays now available.
During my visit on 23 July, I spent some time with site manager Kizzy Hibbs who was super excited to have joined the EG On The Move family and is looking forward to a busy summer season with her new store and branding on display.

Have I missed something or is there no mention of EV charging? ( I am aware of the e mail’s name)
Hi John, this article is written by a third party we can pass on your feedback to them about the EV charging and see if we can get the article updated. Thanks
Didn’t appreciate the cat inside the shop on the counter, considering you serve food like a Greggs! Disgusting!!
