Fuel Levy – October 2023

Transport companies are traditionally high turnover low margin businesses whereby fluctuations in major cost areas can have an immediate effect on their viability. With fuel costs contributing to a quarter of our total transport costs it is imperative that Sub Zero Express seek to recover any movement.

Sub Zero Express uses the industry standard “Fuel Levy Formula” that provides a fair and transparent calculation for the recovery of these volatile cost movements. 
Fuel Levy = (((AFP-BR)/1)xFC%)
This means that we are only seeking to recover the actual extra cost of fuel to our business and not attempting to improve profit margins via a fuel levy. Fuel prices are based on AIP historial terminal gate pricing.

We thank you for your understanding in this matter and look forward to continuing to supply you a quality and sustainable refrigerated transport service. Should you have any questions or inquiries, please feel free to contact our Sales Team for further assistance.
