On July 27, 2025, the Ethiopian Ministry of Trade & Regional Integration announced updated retail prices for petroleum products. For the month of August, the prices of petrol, white diesel, kerosene, and jet fuel will remain unchanged. However, the government has set the price for light black diesel at 127.22 Br per litre and heavy black diesel at 124.55 Br per litre. This adjustment aligns with global procurement conditions and policy directives. The ministry has urged fuel stations and suppliers to implement these changes fairly and transparently. This decision reflects the government’s ongoing efforts to control inflation while managing strategic fuel reserves and ensuring a consistent supply throughout the country.
