Nafta (oil company)

Nafta was an oil distribution chain owned by the Soviet Union but operated abroad.
In the 1920s, a Nafta chain operated in Sweden, before being sold to Gulf Oil in 1937. In the United Kingdom and Belgium a petrol chain was built up in the 1960s, with the British service stations being sold to Q8 in 1987.
NAFTA (UK) was originally called "Russian Oil Storage Installations". Another Soviet-owned company in the United Kingdom which shared directors with Nafta was "Russian Oil Products Limited" (established in 1924 and struck off in 2018).
