The importers informed that second ship will reach Karachi on September 23 or 25.

They expected that the prices of flour and wheat are likely to decrease across the country as the demand will be met after arrival of the ships.

They said that after the import, Russian wheat will be available in abundance across the country for the whole year.

Presently wheat is available at Rs125 per kg and flour at Rs160 per kg in open market.
