No Sachet Water Price Increase – Trade Ministry

Accra, April 6 – The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Agribusiness has confirmed that sachet water prices will remain unchanged, following consultations with industry stakeholders.

  • The decision came after a meeting with the Ghana Plastic Manufacturers Association (GPMA) and the National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers (NASPAWAP).
  • The Ministry assured consumers:

“Consumers can continue to purchase sachet water at the current price.”

  • NASPAWAP had earlier announced a planned price increase on April 2, citing rising production costs due to global supply disruptions.
  • The Ministry commended stakeholders for suspending the adjustment, which was scheduled to take effect on Monday, April 6, 2026.
  • It emphasized that the decision reflects a commitment to protecting consumers and maintaining market stability, and pledged to continue working with trade associations to address industry concerns.
