THERE WHEN YOU NEED IT / so we're there whenever you need us.
I'd consider a less literal option:
XXX SHOP: THERE WHEN YOU NEED IT
Last part: ...so we're there whenever you need us.

I think the point they want to stress is that they're open for long hours every day of the year. So whenever you find that you need something, XXX is there to take your money!

Comment: "I really like this - thanks very much...
I thought that "emergency" would be right in some circumstances, but might have different connotations for a petrol station forecourt! :-)"

: perhaps something like "should cover any emergency that should arise/you may have" but I do think the essence of the meaning here is emergency (imprevist).

any unforeseen / unexpected matter
I think "emergency" is too strong and would be more related to health affairs.
