Leaders of the LP Gas Industry meet in New York City

At the beginning of June the WLPGA brought together the leaders of the global LP Gas industry in New York City as it held its internal network, Board and Industry Council meetings.

In New York, the WLPGA Global Cylinder Network officially launched the “Guidelines for the Development of Sustainable LP Gas Markets: Early Stage Markets Edition”. These guidelines look at the best way to encourage long term growth in the cylinder sector of early stage markets, defined as those with less than 2kg consumption per person annually.

WLPGA Industry Council members also had the unique opportunity to experience dinner at the prestigious Knickerbocker Club, a private club in Manhattan.  WLPGA President Mr Chen delivered a powerful welcome speech outlining his vision for the future of the industry.
