The company’s Chairman stated that the short-term supply constraint was caused by an unexpected surge in demand for Litro Gas, coupled with a two-day supply interruption on February 14, 2026. He emphasized that immediate measures have been taken to restore normal distribution and stabilize the market.
To address the increased demand, Litro released 284,000 domestic refill cylinders on February 17 and 18. In addition, a further 351,000 domestic refill cylinders are scheduled to be distributed from today through Saturday to ensure that consumer needs are met without disruption.
The company has also placed orders to replenish stocks, with three shipments expected to arrive before the end of the month. These additional supplies are anticipated to further strengthen distribution and prevent similar shortages in the coming weeks.
Litro reiterated its commitment to maintaining a steady supply of LP gas and urged the public to refrain from panic purchasing, assuring that adequate stocks will be available islandwide.
