The National Executive Committee of the National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers (NASAWAP) has reported a change in the cost of sachet water.
As indicated by the affiliation, the cost of sachet water will be sold at GHp40 with impact from Monday, 27 December 2021.
It is suggested that the 500 ml chilled filtered water be retailed at GHC1.50, and the 750ml or medium size chilled filtered water be retailed at GHS2.00, the affiliation said in an assertion.
The 1.5L or huge filtered water is to be retailed at GHC 3.50.
Chilled sachet water will be retailed at 40 pesewas.
A pack of sachet water, 500ml by 30 pieces will presently sell at GHC4.50 from retail trucks.
Scaled down shops will presently retail a pack of sachet water at GHC6, the assertion endorsed by the National President of the Association, Mr Magnus Nunoo, said.
The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers (NASPAWAP) in interview with partners wishes to suggest the accompanying vertical value audits of packaged and sachet water.
These audits fill in as a manual for every single provincial affiliation and to guarantee consistency the nation over.
The NEC likewise alerts that there may be slight variety in costs across the locales because of haulage to remote and far off regions the nation over.
It is suggested that the 500ml ice filtered water be retailed at GHC 1.50, and the 750ml or medium size chilled filtered water be retailed at 2.00 GHC.
The 1.5L or enormous filtered water is to be retailed at GHC 3.50. Chilled sachet water will be retailed at 40peswas.
A pack of sachet water, 500ml by 30pcs, will currently sell at GHC 4.50 from the retail trucks.
Small shops will currently retail a sack of sachet at GHC 6 for every pack least.
These audits produce results from Monday, December 27, 2021.
The value audits have been required by the increasing expense of data sources, for example, fuel, vehicle spare parts and bundling materials which are essentially imported.
In our past audit, the Ghana cedi to the dollar was in the locale of GHC 4.50.
Right now, it is crawling up to GHC 6.50.
Fuel costs have likewise essentially gone up since our last survey. Unfortunately, fuel value surveys draw in a great deal of public clamor any time the public authority forces the smallest expense on it.
In any case, the public chooses to disregard charges on filtered water, which represent the exorbitant costs buyers need to bear.
Before, makers bore part or these tremendous duties just to make due, particularly following imported filtered water the vast majority of which sidestep these duties, yet it is turning out to be progressively unreasonable for the neighborhood water industry.
It has become important that a portion of these backhanded expenses, creation, and conveyance costs, be given to the purchaser. Consumers actually should realize that any filtered water they buy has a decent duty of 23.5% other than VAT/NHIL.
The proper duties are comprised of 17.5% extract charge in addition to an extra 6% toll before VAT/NHIL.
It is sad to realize that lager with nearby natural substance content simply above half draws in 10% extract as contrasted and 17.5% on filtered water which has more than 95% to 100% neighborhood content.
The NEC of NASPAWAP wishes to approach the public authority to draw in with all partners to address this inconsistency by fifteenth January 2022, to assist with supporting the neighborhood water industry and diminish the expense of consumable water to Ghanaians. Ghana has the most elevated duties on privately delivered and bundled in the entire world.
Imported filtered water, then again, is sidestepping and abstaining from charges, in this manner twisting the market, and making income misfortunes the state.
The NEC wishes to hunger for the extravagance of the burning-through open to hold on for us in our bid to support the neighborhood water industry.
Much obliged to you. Marked, The National President of the National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers
