By Aaron Humes: As of today, Wednesday, March 11, the Supplies Control Unit has announced an increase in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) prices by seven cents per gallon, and by $2 per hundred-pound cylinder in urban areas and $1 per hundred-pound cylinder in rural areas.
The new prices are $4.12 wholesale, $5.72 per gallon retail in urban areas, and $5.82 per gallon in rural areas. Retail prices rise to $1.31 per pound in urban areas and $1.33 per pound in rural areas.
This means that a hundred-pound cylinder of LPG will cost you $131 in the towns and cities and $133 elsewhere.
An increase in acquisition costs for propane and butane drove the change.
The public is advised that the prices established for imported LPG are based on a mixture of 70:30 (Propane-Butane) only, as per the requirements of the Belize National Standard Specification for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), BZS 21:2012.
