Prices of sachet water has gone up.
Those who patronise it for 30 to 40 pesewas respectively are expected to pay 60 pesewas starting today, Monday, October 31, 2022.
This follows a recommendation from the National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers for prices of sachet water to increase.
With the increment, a bag of sachet water will be selling for GH¢10.
The association also adjusted prices of bottled water upwards.
It also suggested that 500ml bottled water be retailed at GH¢2.50, 750ml bottled water or medium size be retailed at GH¢3.50 while 1.5-litre bottled water will go for GH¢5.
According to National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers, increment in fuel prices and other input costs are the reasons for the upward adjustment.
NASPAWAP in September this year increased prices of their products citing similar reasons as increase in fuel prices and other inputs for their review.
