Jordan tenders to buy up to 120,000 metric tons wheat

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 June 4.
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 in the new tender for hard wheat was sought in a series of possible combinations in consignments of 50,000 to 60,000 tons. Possible shipment combinations were July 1-15, July 16-31, Aug. 1-15 and Aug. 16-31, traders said.
Jordan has repeatedly rejected offers and made no purchases in wheat tenders in April and May.
Traders said Jordan is among importers suffering from the sharp rise in wheat prices since late April because of fears about weather damage to Russia’s crop. Wheat hit 10-month highs on Tuesday.
