During the last couple of weeks of the previous year the business was shaped by the public holidays as well as the company holidays of the spinning industries.
The need for starting production in 2013 was already satisfied; only single contracts were closed. The few registered enquiries showed a wait-and-see-attitude and only a limited interest in the first quarter 2013.
The following contracts were closed:
-Medium staple cotton: Cotton from West Africa was sold for the 2nd quarter 2013. -Long- and extra-long staple cotton: Egyptian Giza 86 was ordered for prompt delivery.
