Costco opened its first gas station in the state of Guanajuato this week, its fourth in Mexico.

The 63-million-peso (US $3.3-million) station is on Tecnológico avenue in Celaya, and includes a convenience store.

The company has already opened stations in Culiacán, Sinaloa; Saltillo, Coahuila; and San Luis Potosí, selling Costco’s Kirkland Signature gasoline brand.

The company assured customers that they will receive the exact quantity of gasoline they pay for.
