That is the wrong.  You encrypt with the public key and you decrypt with
the private key.

You want that other are also able to decrypt the file?  Then you need to
encrypt the file to all of them:

  gpg -e -r userid_1 -r userid_2 -r userid_3 file.csv

Then send file.csv.gpg to a all mentioned users and they will all be
able to decrypt the file.  The size of the encrypted file won't change
noticeable.
