HAMBURG - A Syrian state purchasing agency has issued a new international tender to purchase 50,000 tonnes of soymeal and 50,000 tonnes of corn, European traders said on Wednesday.
The tender from Syria's General Foreign Trade Organisation closes on June 24, they said.
Two previous tenders from the organisation for 50,000 tonnes of soymeal and 50,000 tonnes of corn had closed on May 12 and May 24. Traders said they believed no purchase was made.
Yellow corn was sought. Offers must be submitted in euros.
Delivery of both the soymeal and corn was sought within four months of the supply contract being confirmed or following the opening of a letter of credit on the purchase.
