By Aaron Humes: As of Wednesday, April 15, the Supplies Control Unit has announced an increase in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) prices by 17 cents per gallon, and by $4 per hundred-pound cylinder countrywide.
The new prices are $4.59 wholesale, $6.19 per gallon retail in urban areas, and $6.29 per gallon in rural areas. Retail prices rise to $1.42 per pound in urban areas and $1.44 per pound in rural areas.
This means that a hundred-pound cylinder of LPG will cost you $142 in the towns and cities and $144 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.
