HAMBURG: A government agency in Pakistan is believed to have bought some 550,000 tonnes of wheat from optional origins in an international tender to purchase and import 640,00 tonnes which closed this week, European traders said on Friday.
The Trading Corporation of Pakistan (TCP) was believed to have purchased all the wheat at $377.00 c&f after several trading houses agreed to match the lowest price offered in the tender earlier this week, traders said.
