As we are seeing on the daily news bulletins, the price of diesel fuel has again increased dramatically in the last week.
The supply of same from normal distributors has also slowed, with many companies reducing delivery quantities in an effort to stretch existing stocks in their facilities. This is greatly impacting our costs as we have recently been forced to pay in excess of $ 3.00/litre to top up some trucks fuel tanks at retail service stations.
The most recent diesel fuel cost increase is now close to 100% on the cost some 2 weeks ago.
