Motorists set to get some much-needed relief with significant fuel price cuts announced across petrol, diesel, and paraffin

Motorists are set to get some much-needed relief at the pumps from today, with significant fuel price cuts announced across petrol, diesel, and paraffin. The South African Petroleum Retailers Association, SAPRA, has welcomed the adjustment, noting that while the decrease will ease pressure on consumers and businesses, the broader economic environment remains fragile, with ongoing concerns around cost of living, global oil volatility, and long-term sustainability in the sector. We spoke to SAPRA National Chair, Henry van der Merwe.
