Thailand Targets Africa, Middle East Markets
Date: Friday, January 26 @ 09:15:27 CST Topic: Thai Rice
Believing that Middle East and African countries have a huge potential for Thai rice, the Thailand government plans to sell its huge stockpile of rice under its government-to-government deals.
Thailand's Commerce Minister is scheduled to visit Tunisia next month to negotiate a government-to-government rice deal. The country last year imported 20,000 MT of parboiled and white rice from Thailand.
Middle East and Africa accounted for 60% of Thailand's rice exports of 7.4 million MT last year
