Govt to Export 108,000 Tons Surplus Sugar

The Cabinet's Economic Coordination Committee has greenlit an international bidding process for the sale of 108,000 metric tons of sugar surplus to the Trading Corporation of Pakistan. This decision followed a meeting chaired by Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb at the Finance Division in Islamabad. The 108,000 tons are part of the 300,000 tons imported last year, as recommended by the Sugar Steering Committee.

The Ministry of National Food Security and Research requested permission to offer international bids for the remaining sugar stockpile. The tender will be administered under the guidelines set by the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority. Notable attendees included the Federal Minister for National Food Security and Research, Rana Tanveer Hussain, and the Federal Minister for Investment, Qaiser Ahmed Sheikh.

Other participants comprised advisors to the Prime Minister on industries and production, federal secretaries, and senior officials from various ministries.
