The tender (ID 479612) provides for the installation of visual signage at the service stations, including price boards at G$ 15,485,000 per unit and VIP roadside panels at G$ 16,569,800 per unit. The bid opening process took place on May 28 at the Villa Elisa facility, and the award was formalized through Resolution PR/WW No. 348/2026, dated June 9.
The contract covers 181 items, including price boards, flags, totems, LED signs, electronic panels, indoor and safety signage, as well as installation and maintenance materials.
According to the tender notice, the goal is to standardize the visual identity of Petropar-branded stations and define advertising and promotional disclosure strategies.

Also on the list are former deputies Blanca Marina Vargas de Caballero and Del Pilar Medina, deputy Jazmín Narváez, and political figure Víctor Molas Turó.
