The active growth of wholesale prices for sugar was replaced by a fall, over the past two days sugar has fallen in price by 1.00 rubles per kg. Market participants explain the decline in demand, among other things, by logistical problems. Firstly, by the end of the season, a significant part of the supply is the remains of low-quality sugar. Secondly, we see a summer increase in the price of road transfers and a shortage of vehicles, as sugar has to compete with the seasonal transport of vegetables and fruits. All this leads to uncertainty in supplies, sellers cannot guarantee the timing of shipment and the quality of sugar. In such a situation, buyers prefer not to take risks and wait for a new crop of high-quality sugar to enter the market.
According to Sugar.ru price monitoring data, for the period from July 6, 2023 to July 13, 2023, the dollar exchange rate rose by 0.3% (on July 6 - 90.34 rubles / $, on July 13 - 90.63 rubles / $). The ruble Moscow wholesale price for sugar increased by 1.40 rubles/kg (+2.07%), the Krasnodar wholesale price increased by 0.50 rubles/kg (+0.78%). The Moscow dollar wholesale price for sugar increased by $0.013/kg (+1.74%), the Krasnodar wholesale price increased by $0.004/kg (+0.56%).
However, the previous rise in prices made rare forward offers of new crop sugar at 63 RUR/kg a thing of the past. Sellers, seeing a possible rise in prices, are in no hurry to offer sugar of a new crop today (deliveries from mid-August) at a discount to the current price.
The estimated cost of white sugar from raw sugar is $817.67/ton (74.10 rubles/kg).
As of July 13, 2023, the cost of sugar from imported raw sugar in Uzbekistan is $831.5/t (66.75 rubles/kg in Krasnodar including delivery) excluding VAT and duties, in Kazakhstan - $764.2/t (65 36 rubles/kg in Krasnodar including delivery) without VAT and duties.

Export rates also slowed down, since the beginning of July 6.5 thousand tons of white sugar have been exported (30.9 thousand tons for the whole of June, 33.5 thousand tons for May).
