Gov't intervenes to stop planned rise in sachet water price

The Ministry of Trade, Agribusiness and Industry (MOTAI) has assured the public that the price of sachet water remains unchanged.

In a statement released by the Ministry, it said the price will not increase as scheduled and that consumers can continue to purchase sachet water at the current rate.

MOTAI commended the Ghana Plastic Manufacturers Association (GPMA) and the National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers (NASPAWAP) for their cooperation in suspending the planned price adjustment that was due to take effect, Monday, April 6, 2026.

The Ministry disclosed that on Wednesday, April 8, it will meet with the leadership of GPMA and NASPAWAP to urgently address the challenges facing the sector.

MOTAI said the meeting aims to find immediate and sustainable solutions to supply-chain and cost pressures affecting producers and consumers alike.

However, MOTAI reaffirmed its commitment to working with all trade associations to resolve issues swiftly and maintain market stability.

The Ministry encouraged stakeholders to engage constructively and pledged to monitor developments closely to prevent sudden disruptions in the market.
