PRA STATEMENT ON PUMP PRICES
PRA 15/02/2022
“As it has been widely publicised, the tensions between Russia and Ukraine have pushed the price of oil to a seven-year high.
As the situation unfolds over the coming days, the price of oil will be subject to further volatility. Other key factors to consider include continued tightness in the oil market and the Dollar-Sterling exchange rate.
The PRA, which represents independent retailers, will continue to ensure that the price of fuel is as competitive as possible”.
Gordon Balmer, Petrol Retailers Association (PRA) Executive Director
The PRA represents independently owned forecourts which accounts for around 65% of forecourts and about 35% in terms of market share.
