Lanka Sathosa has announced tenders to import 70,000 metric tonnes of Nadu rice from India, according to its chairman, Samitha Perera. Suppliers have been given a seven-day window, starting today (November 29), to submit their quotations.
The imported rice is expected to arrive in Sri Lanka by mid-December. The move follows Cabinet approval last week to import rice as a short-term measure to address the current market shortage.
Authorities aim to stabilize rice supply and prices with this initiative.
