Brazilian Refined No. 45 White Sugar Price Quote
(Valid from June 10th to July 10th, 2026)
A: Payment Method:
SBLC/BG/DLC transferable to top 50 banks
Option 1
The buyer can arrange a transferable standby letter of credit/bank guarantee/documentary letter of credit (provided by the top 50 banks). This is quick, simple, and direct; however, past experience with numerous orders has shown that most buyers still find it very difficult, and even if a few can open one, the delays are very long.
Option Two
Important Note: If the buyer cannot obtain a transferable standby letter of credit/bank guarantee/documentary letter of credit (SBLC/BG/DLC) from a top 50 bank:
CIF Price, Payment Upon Arrival: Our company will issue a two-month standby letter of credit for the buyer.
The buyer can pay a 1% issuance fee to our company via wire transfer, or directly to the lawyer’s escrow account (an additional lawyer escrow fee will apply). Our company will issue a two-month standby letter of credit on behalf of the buyer as soon as possible. Payment will be released after the buyer inspects the goods at the port of destination. The 1% issuance fee is calculated as follows: For example, if the order quantity is 50,000 tons, purchasing 50,000 tons of No. 45 sugar at a unit price of US$400 per ton: US$400/ton x 500,000 tons x 2 months = US$400,000.
CIF Price, Payment Upon Port of Loading: Issuance of a one-month standby letter of credit.
If the buyer accepts payment at the port of loading, the buyer only needs to pay the one-month standby letter of credit fee. The fee is 1% x $20 million = $200,000.
We recommend that buyers try to entrust our company to assist in opening standby letters of credit (SBLCs) because we know that many buyers, even those with strong credit and funds, cannot quickly open any standby letters of credit/DLCs/BGs (SBLCs/DLs/BGs). Even if a few buyers can open a letter of credit, it takes several months to actually open it, which is very time-consuming. We can assist buyers in quickly opening SBLCs (we have a very professional letter of credit opening team to help). Paying a 1% or 2% handling fee is very safe for the buyer. In case of any problems, we can refund the buyer’s letter of credit opening fee plus bank interest on the opening fee, and pay a 2% PB fee after verifying the SBLC/DLC/BG.
Note:
- If the 1% standby letter of credit (SBLC) is successfully issued, a 10% commission will be paid to all intermediaries (5% for the buyer and 5% for the seller).
- If SBLC successfully raises funds, the intermediary team will receive 2% of the SBLC amount, a commission of $2 million (if the issuance cost is $100 million). We pay a large commission to encourage intermediaries to promote this effective model and help more buyers successfully complete transactions.
- USDC/USDT payments are supported.
- Escrow/third-party escrow can be arranged by lawyers (buyer pays escrow fees).
- The seller can provide transaction records from banks such as HSBC, Barclays, and Deutsche Bank.
Option Three: Spot TT Payment: (We have spot goods at Brazilian ports)
Brazilian Cargill Spot: São Paulo, Brazil: Price $430 + Buyer $20 commission. The specific transaction process is as follows: (ABO/ZM will pay the intermediary’s commission in advance after successful payment)
5% is paid to Cargill through the seller’s lawyer’s Escrow account.
The buyer pays 5%, and the remaining TT deposit is paid by ABOGLBE. In case of any unforeseen circumstances, ABOGLBE will be responsible for a full refund!
The transportation costs for 50,000 tons of Cargill sugar are calculated as follows:
Cargill receives 50,000 tons of spot sugar weekly from 50-100 large factories at the Cargill Guarujá (TEAG) terminal, as well as at Cargill’s T-33 bagged sugar terminal in the port of Santos.
The peak daily volume of white sugar transported by Cargill’s single large export terminal in Brazil is 8,160 tons/day. The main vehicle type used is semi-trucks fully loaded with sugar bags.
Total cost of transporting 50,000 tons of No. 45 white sugar:
Truck transportation: Approximately US$1.39 million to US$2.42 million (including port terminal fees).
Rail transportation: Approximately US$1.68 million to US$2.1 million (including port terminal fees).
Option Four:
Brazilian OTG/SPOT spot inspection and payment (We may have other suppliers with spot goods from time to time).
São Paulo, Brazil spot goods: Price US$460 + US$20 commission (US$10 for buyer + US$10 for seller). Buyer needs to provide proof of funds for MT 799/199. Payment is due after inspection in São Paulo, Brazil.
