These are example prices to give you some idea for July, 2008. Prices are CIF (cost, insurance and freight included) from Brazil to Any Safe World Port:
12.500 metric tons x 12 months (total: 150.000 MT): $ USD / MT CIF ASWP
25.000 metric tons x 12 months (total: 300.000 MT): $USD / MT CIF ASWP
50.000 metric tons x 12 months (total: 600.000 MT): $ USD / MT CIF ASWP
100.000 metric tons x 12 months (total: 1.200.000 MT): $ USD / MT CIF ASWP
300.000 metric tons x 12 months (total: 3.600.000 MT): $USD / MT CIF ASWP
500.000 metric tons x 12 months (total: 6.000.000 MT): $ USD / MT CIF ASWP
5.000.000 metric tons (one time order, split into 17 months): $ USD / MT CIF ASWP
20.000.000 metric tons (one time order, split into multiple monthly deliveries over six years): $ / MT CIF ASWP
20 Million MT to 30.000.000 metric tons (one time order, split into multiple monthly deliveries over six years): $ / MT CIF ASWP
Prices for one time orders (called ?spot? orders) are generally higher, When the buyer commits to a longer term order, the price can be adjusted to the total quantity and is thus lower. Prices also heavily depend on the payment instruments and guarantee.
Spot orders:
12.500 metric tons - USD / MT CIF ASWP (spot order)
25.000 metric tons - USD / MT CIF ASWP (spot order)
50.000 metric tons - USD / MT CIF ASWP (spot order)
There are two things we have to consider when quoting the price:
a) Are we talking about the sugar in bags or loose sugar (bulk)
b) How many months worth of shipments can the buyer guarantee for with a SBLC (stand by letter of credit) or BG (Bank guarantee). The more months he can cover, the better the price. BG is a stronger instrument than SBLC (but both are acceptable). If he can guarantee the entire order with a BG then he gets the lowest possible price (we are talking a bout big orders of course).
We normally don't handle smaller orders, but we have a supplier who does, so if you wish to order container-size shipments let us know. The price is a lot higher though (around $ CIF ASWP depending on the current market price and shipping costs).
