Malaysian potash imports reach 1.6 million mt in 2014

摘要

Malaysia imported 1.6 million mt of potash in the full year 2014, a 29% increase on its 2013 imports and its largest recorded yearly imports, according to GTIS data. The country imported more than 600,000 mt of potash from Canpotex, which slightly increased its overall volumes to Malaysia but lost almost 10% of its market share as Uralkali and BPC increased their sales to Malaysia. Uralkali more than tripled its volumes to Malaysia in 2014, sending 338,778 mt while BPC more than doubled its volumes, sending 288,470 mt.
