Effective Monday, April 6, 2026, prices of sachet water will go up, the National Association of Sachet and Packaged Water Producers (NASPAWAP) has announced.

This was contained in a statement signed by the Director of Corporate Affairs for the Association, Kwame Agyapong, and issued on Thursday, April 2, 2026.

The statement explains that the increment is due to the global shortage of polymers and rising costs driven by the ongoing conflict in Iran, which has significantly affected production.

“The rising costs have made it challenging for manufacturers to maintain current prices,” the statement noted.

It stated the new recommended prices as follows:

  • Ex-factory: GH¢8 per bag of 30 sachets of 500ml
  • Ex-truck: GH¢10 per bag of 30 sachets of 500ml
  • Maximum retail: GH¢15 per bag of 30 sachets of 500ml

NASPAWAP urged retailers and consumers to adhere to the new prices to ensure fair trade practices.

“This adjustment is necessary to sustain production and ensure the continuous supply of safe drinking water,” the association added.
