The Guyana Manufacturing and Services Association (GMSA) Ltd. is hoping that with the recent announcement of the 30 per cent reduction in fuel prices by Government, that the Guyana Power and Light (GPL) will manifest these changes and cause a trickle-down effect in the rates charged by the power company in the foreseeable future.The GMSA,

The new prices bring local retail costs for fuel within range of current prices in North American, European and other developed countries that were reduced recently in response to plummeting costs for crude and refined oils around the world,” the GMSA underscored.The Manufacturing Association explained that more than 60 percent of local manufacturers of food products,

The GMSA anticipates that lower fuel prices could, in the medium to long term, enable local producers to market their products and services in the Caribbean and farther afield on a more competitive basis and to ultimately increase their market share. This of course,

The Association’s primary concern was (and still is) the high cost of electricity, the primary factor in most production processes,
