Algerian Grain Agency issues international tender for soft wheat purchase

The Algerian Interprofessional Office of Cereals has initiated an international tender to purchase 50,000 tonnes of soft wheat from optional origins. Market participants stated that the deadline for submissions is Wednesday, with offers remaining valid until November 12. Shipments are scheduled for January 2027, with specific timelines depending on the region of supply. Although the nominal volume is set at 50,000 tonnes, Algeria frequently exceeds the initially requested amounts in its international tenders. As a major importer, Algeria is increasingly relying on grain from the Black Sea region, diversifying its supply chain.
