Calculate: 6kg wholesale Ksh 660 (110×6), 13kg wholesale Ksh 1,430 (110×13). 50kg wholesale Ksh 5,500-5,950. This is your base cost before retail markup. Retail per KG becomes Ksh 153-175 for 6kg and Ksh 169-196 for 13kg.
Step 2: Compare retail refill prices for 6kg and 13kg

- K-Gas/Rubis: 6kg empty Ksh 1,800, cylinder + gas Ksh 2,950, complete set with burner & grill Ksh 3,400, refill Ksh 1,050; 13kg empty Ksh 3,200-3,500, cylinder + gas Ksh 4,950, complete set Ksh 5,500-6,500, refill Ksh 2,450-2,650

Step 4: Understand price variation factors
Three factors drive variations:
- Petroleum Development Levy – Ksh 5.40 per kg on imported LPG raises base cost.
- Supply chain – global shifts through Strait of Hormuz dictate landed cost at Port of Mombasa.
- Secondary logistics – coastal hubs Mombasa/Nairobi cheaper (wholesale Ksh 110/kg); interior towns add heavy road transit fees shifting retail from Ksh 105-120/kg wholesale to Ksh 900-1,100 (6kg) and Ksh 2,200-2,560 (13kg) retail.
Step 5: Weigh your cylinder to confirm correct weight
Legal requirement: All certified shops must have verified weighing scale stamped by Weights and Measures. Request retailer to weigh cylinder before and after refilling to confirm exact allocation. At KegasDealers empty 6kg is Ksh 1,800, empty 13kg Ksh 3,200 (K-Gas empty Ksh 3,500, ProGas empty Ksh 2,700). If you paid Ksh 1,050 for 6kg but scale shows 5kg, you are short Ksh 175. At KegasDealers all refills weighed and EPRA sealed.
Step 6: Source wholesale to beat retail inflation
If you run estate shop or commercial kitchen, retail sourcing eats margin. At KegasDealers (EPRA licensed since 2019, Zanzibar Road Kilindini Mombasa), wholesale: Ksh 110 per kg (range Ksh 105-120). 6kg wholesale Ksh 660 profit Ksh 390 when selling at Ksh 1,050, 13kg wholesale Ksh 1,430 profit Ksh 970 when selling at Ksh 2,400.
Daily profit for new dealer: 7x6kg refill profit Ksh 2,730 (390×7) + 3x13kg profit Ksh 2,910 (970×3) = Ksh 5,640 + complete sets Ksh 3,400 (2x6kg profit 500-900 each + 1x13kg profit 1,200-1,500) + accessories Ksh 900 = Total Ksh 9,940/day. Monthly 26 days = Ksh 258,440.
