Latvijas Propāna Gāze

What Latvijas Propāna Gāze does

Latvijas Propāna Gāze (LPG) is a privately held Latvian limited liability company (SIA) and the largest LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) seller in Latvia since 1962, tracing operational roots to 1949. The company supplies LPG across three principal segments: (1) residential/autogas via a 51-station filling network and cylinder distribution serving approximately 350,000 cylinder consumers and 80,000 apartment-heating households; (2) industrial gasification systems for grain drying, livestock heating, greenhouses, asphalt production, and food processing; and (3) terminal/transit services through Riga Port, including a 142-meter pier, 3,600-tonne coastal tank park, 7,600 m³ export station reservoir, and multi-modal transport (rail, road, sea) from four regional terminals in Riga, Valmiera, Daugavpils, and Ventspils.

The underlying technology is physical LPG infrastructure: a specialized fleet of 34 transport vehicles (11 tanker trucks and 23 cylinder carriers), port facilities with 70-100 tonnes/hour pumping capacity, and 20+ years of in-house heating system design capability with four installation teams. A mobile app (MANS.LPG.LV) provides transactional self-service for customer card holders. The company holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications for quality and environmental management.

LPG's business model is multi-stream: unit-pricing on LPG products (EUR 9.30 per 5L cylinder up to EUR 1,165 per tonne of heating propane), one-time fees on heating system installations (EUR 2,600-2,900+ per tank), and managed-service fees on terminal/transit operations. Go-to-market combines direct-to-consumer online and phone ordering, sales-led enterprise accounts for industrial and transit customers, and a channel partner agent network for cylinder distribution. Loyalty is reinforced through dynamic-tier discount cards and partnerships with Autonams and Gotika Auto. A January 2026 reorganization splits retail operations into a separate subsidiary, SIA "Latvijas Propāna Gāze Retail."
