The National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers (NASPAWAP) has announced an increase in the price of a bag of sachet water, popularly referred to as ‘pure water’.

In a press statement, the Association said a bag of sachet water will now cost GH¢3.50p when bought from all trucks and water depots.

They explained that the increase is as a result of “high production cost and distribution.”

In the statement, NASPAWAP added that “the price of a single sachet water remains at GH¢0.30p.”
