Controlled price for LPG (butane) down by three dollars

By Aaron Humes: The Supplies Control Unit (SCU) in the Ministry of Agriculture, Food Security and Enterprise has informed the general public that effective Wednesday, new fixed controlled prices will be introduced for the sale of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG).

The new prices per hundred-pound cylinder are $136 in the municipalities and $139 in rural areas, a decrease of three dollars per pound from the previous prices, or 20 cents per gallon.

This change now reflects the sale by wholesale volume and retail sale by volume in both urban and rural areas.

The price decrease is resulting primarily from a decrease in the acquisition price of butane. The general public is reminded 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.
