Jordan issues tender to buy up to 120,000 tons of wheat, traders say
HAMBURG - Jordan's state grain buyer has issued an international tender to buy up to 120,000 metric tons of milling wheat sourced from optional origins, European traders said on Wednesday. The deadline for price offers is August 5. A new announcement had been expected by traders after Jordan made no purchase in its previous tender for 120,000 tons of wheat on Tuesday. Shipment is sought in a series of possible combinations in consignments of 50,000 to 60,000 tons for September 16-30, October 1-15, October 16-31 and November 1-15, the same periods as sought in Tuesday's tender. Jordan has also issued a separate purchase tender seeking 120,000 tons of animal feed barley, closing on August 6. (Reporting by Michael Hogan Editing by David Goodman )

No bids received for Pakistan's tender for 50,000 sugar metric tons, say traders
HAMBURG: No trading companies were believed to have submitted price offers in the international tender to buy 50,000 metric tons of sugar from Pakistan which closed on Tuesday, European traders said in initial assessments. Traders said the shipment and arrival periods were regarded as having too short notice for realistic offers. The tender from the state trading agency Trading Corporation of Pakistan (TCP) sought loading from August 1-15. The entire volume purchased was sought for arrival in Pakistan by August 30. Pakistan's government had on July 8 approved plans to import 500,000 tons of sugar to help maintain price stability. Market analysts said that retail sugar prices in the country have risen sharply since January.

Algeria buys about 1mln T wheat in tender, traders say
HAMBURG/PARIS: Algerian state grains agency OAIC has bought about 1 million metric tons of milling wheat in an international tender which closed on Tuesday, European traders said. Several estimates of the purchase late on Tuesday evening were around 1.05 to 1.08 million tons, with volumes bought in Algerian tenders generally difficult to precisely assess. Purchases were reported in a range, with buying reported at $253, $255 and $257 a metric ton, cost and freight (c&f) included, they said. Most was bought at $257 a ton c&f, with only a couple of consignments believed to have been purchased at the lower prices, they said. The wheat is optional origin, but first assessments were sourced from the Black Sea region, possibly including Ukraine, Russia and Bulgaria. Some could also be sourced from the Baltic Sea region, traders said. Reports reflect assessments from traders, and further estimates of prices and volumes are possible later. The wheat was sought for shipment in three periods from the main supply regions including Europe: September 16-30, October 1-15 and October 16-31, with the agency apparently deciding to skip purchases for the first half of September. If sourced from South America or Australia, shipment is one month earlier. Algeria is a vital customer for wheat from the European Union, especially France, but Russian and other Black Sea region exporters have been expanding strongly in the Algerian market. In its last reported tender on June 17, the OAIC bought an estimated 550,000 to 570,000 tons of milling wheat at around $244.50 to $245 a metric ton c&f.
