LPG to go up 26 cents per gallon, $8 per hundred-pound cylinder tomorrow

By Aaron Humes: The Supplies Control Unit has announced an increase in the price of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), after a decrease of 18 cents in June.

The new prices are $3.90 wholesale, $5.50 per gallon retail in urban areas and $5.60 per gallon in rural areas. Retail prices are $1.26 per pound in urban areas and $1.28 per pound in rural areas.

This means that a hundred-pound cylinder of LPG will now cost you $126 in the towns and cities and $128 elsewhere.

Increases in acquisition costs for propane and butane drove the change, which goes into effect on Wednesday, July 10. The general public is advised that the prices established for imported LPG are based on the mixtures of 70:30 (Propane: Butane) only as per the requirement of the Belize National Standard Specification for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) BZS 21:2012.
