Tunisia purchases 100,000 tons of soft wheat
Tunisia's state grains agency is believed to have purchased about 100,000 metric tons of soft wheat to be sourced from optional origins in an international tender on Friday, European traders said.
This was above the 75,000 tons requested in the tender.
Two consignments of 25,000 tons each were sold by the trading house Grain Star, at an estimated cost and freight (c&f) price of $243.00 per ton.
Another 25,000 tons were sold by Raya at $248.27 per ton C&F, and 25,000 tons by Buildcom at $243.77 per ton C&F.
Reports reflect traders' assessments, and further price and volume estimates are possible.
The tender requested shipment between July 1 and August 10, depending on the supplied origin.
