SUGAR SHIPMENTS AT PORTS HOLD STEADY ABOVE 3 MILLION TONS

According to data from Williams Brasil, 85 vessels were queued in Brazilian ports during the week of September 17 to load 3.28 million tons of sugar. The ports of Santos (2.26 million tons) and Paranaguá (670.4 thousand tons) handled the majority of the cargo. The primary type was VHP sugar (2.99 million tons), followed by Cristal B150, Refined A-45 and TBC. Through September, Brazil exported 1.53 million tons of sugar, generating USD 615.8 million in revenue at an average price of USD 402.10 per ton. Despite the significant volume, there was a drop compared to September 2024: daily revenue fell 27.5%, average daily volume fell 17.1% and average price decreased 12.5%. The survey, which includes docked and waiting vessels with projections through November, indicates strong demand but also reflects ongoing price pressures in the global market.
