Bangladesh looking to replace Indian onions for Egypt’s

Bangladesh may be looking to replace Indian onion imports with those from Egypt as a result of flash floods doubling prices, bdnews24.com reports. Bangladesh used to buy an annual 400k tonnes of onions from India, but flash floods have hit India as well, said Bangladesh’s Commerce Minister Tofail Ahmed. Egypt’s onion exports to Bangladesh are also 30% cheaper than India’s, he added.
