In a statement, Castel said they would have loved to maintain the current prices but had to make the adjustments “due to global inflation in the operating environment”.
“We are compelled to take this decision due to increase in production and distribution costs following the increase in price of fuel, utilities as well as depreciation of the Malawi kwacha.”
