Bangladesh tenders to import 50,000 tonnes of wheat

Bangladesh’s state grains buyer issued a tender on Tuesday to import 50,000 tonnes of milling wheat to boost reserves, a procurement official said.

The deadline to submit offers is April 10, with validity up to April 24, said the official at the Directorate General of Food, Bangladesh’s state grains purchasing agency.

Wheat with 12.5 percent protein content was sought for shipment 40 days after the contract signing and the grain can be supplied from any worldwide origin except Israel.
