Bangladesh wheat tender’s stiff norms likely to keep Indian exporters out
Bangladesh has issued a global tender to import 50,000 tonnes of milling wheat, with deliveries split between Chattogram and Mongla ports. India is unlikely to participate due to tender specifications and more competitive international wheat prices.
Bangladesh has floated a global tender to import 50,000 tonnes of wheat, but India will not be able to tap it, given the specification and competitive prices from other origins.
On Tuesday (June 9), Bangladesh’s Directorate General of Food’s procurement division issued the tender for importing milling wheat. The tender, which opened on today (Wednesday), closes on June 24.
Per the tender, 60 per cent of the wheat consignment has to be delivered at the Chattogram Port and the rest at the Mongla Port.
