🇩🇿 Algeria launches tender for at least 50,000 tonnes of milling wheat

Algeria’s state grain agency OAIC issued an international tender to purchase soft milling wheat from optional origins, according to European traders.

📌 Key details:

• Buyer: OAIC, Algeria
• Commodity: soft milling wheat
• Nominal volume: 50,000 tonnes
• Origin: optional origins
• Price offer deadline: November 11
• Offer validity: until November 12
• Shipment: January 2027

🚢 Shipment periods:

For wheat sourced from major supply regions, including Europe:

• First period: January 1–15, 2027
• Second period: January 16–31, 2027

For wheat sourced from South America, India or Australia, shipment is required one month earlier, in December 2026.

📊 Market context:

Although the tender specifies a nominal volume of 50,000 tonnes, Algeria frequently purchases considerably larger quantities.

Algeria remains an important destination for European wheat, particularly French supplies. However, Black Sea wheat has been gaining market share, while French wheat has been excluded from recent Algerian tenders amid political tensions between the two countries.
