Market has gone up US$30 to US$50 in last two days. According to the view of the importers, analysis the reasons for sesame market to go up for next coming couple of weeks are:

  1. Stock Inventory at Ports have reduced drastically, arrivals are less than local consumption and demand.
  2. No stock at all major origin and not getting offers which china importers are demanding makes people to ask more and more cargo.
  3. Market should go higher in coming days as no much quantity at the local factories that are using sesame seeds for their production.
  4. New exports from Tanzania stops due to Govt. stop to give permits for further exports.

 Personal Views:

According to personal views Prices will be go up for next one week or so.

Tanzania and Mozambique prices will be stable and little up.

International prices will move up. Market will go up as all origins are at the end of the season and there is demand. So supply and demand get affected leads to markets to go up.
