How do you temporarily increase your prices for fuel? It is sure to increase prices for all shipping, supply chain management, and services.
write out a note to clients notifying them of the change
Dear (Customer)
As we see the economic impact from recent events, fuel costs continue to surprise us. We have been resisting a price increase as long as possible, but due to the critical nature of the current situation, we can no longer continue to absorb the increasing pricing.
Consequently, starting (insert date here), we will be implementing a temporary fuel surcharge. The surcharge will be separately shown on your bill. The surcharge will be based on the current price at a standard average rate.
We appreciate you as a customer, and in understanding our business needs. We hope that by sharing this burden we can maintain the high quality service you have come to expect from our company.
Respectfully,
Me!
