Market eases for fanning
Sunday, 26 July 2009
Market started on a strong note especially for good liquoring varieties but eased towards the second half of the catalogue particularly for fannings. Blenders operated in fairly good strength but there was less interest from the loose tea section and as a result prices were generally easier. There was a small weight of tea bought on account of exporters. Dusts saw a fairly good market.
CTC Leaf: 21,506 packages and 23 packages of old season on offer met with a fairly strong demand, which weakened towards the close.
Brokens: Well-made good liquoring Brokens met with quite a strong demand and generally sold at around last levels although eased slightly towards the close and these could be quoted between Tk 153 and Tk 156. Other varieties eased by Tk 1.0 to Tk 2.0.
Fannings: Good liquoring fannings were quite a strong feature particularly in the beginning and sold at fully firm rates but these also eased with the progress of sale and prices ranged between Tk 153 and Tk 155. The remainders were easier often by Tk 3.0.
CTC Dust: 3,625 packages and such packages of old season on offer met with a fairly good demand. Good liquoring RD/PD/D met with quite a strong competition and were mostly firm. Medium types met with a little less enquiry and eased by Tk 1.0 to Tk 2.0. Plainer types followed a similar trend. CDs saw an easier market often by Tk 2.0 to Tk 3.0. Blenders/packers lent good support but loose tea trade was a little less active.
