SteelOrbis has learned from market sources that demand for hot rolled coil (HRC) has remained stagnant in Greece, while import HRC prices have trended upward amid the increases in the global market. While import HRC prices in Greece had weakened by $20/mt during June, the offers have seen some recovery in the past week and have already returned to their early June levels.
Accordingly, ex-Ukraine HRC offers to Greece now stand at $540/mt CFR for August rolling, while Turkish HRC offers can be found in the range of $550-560/mt FOB for September production. All the prices are for advance payment and exclude VAT. Meanwhile, market sources indicate that buyers in the Greek market have been showing greater interest in Ukrainian HRC offers.
