Just thought I'd add some clarity to the question.
Astron sits within the United family. United sites that have / are being re branded are essentially United franchised sites (sites that are not owned 100% by United).The sites are the same as they have always been, same fuel and normally the same staff, just with Astron instead of United branding. They also don't have Pie Face, Barista coffee etc that United's do.
These sites are normally smaller or rural sites. Pretty much if it is currently a United and doesn't have Pie Face, it is a franchised site and will eventually change to Astron (or another completely different brand at the end of the current lease). If you see Pie Face being added to a United, there's a 95% chance that the site is United owned.
