Algeria Launches International Tender for Maize Purchase
European traders announced on Wednesday that Algeria’s official grain buyer, the Professional Grains Office, has initiated an international tender to purchase approximately 240,000 tonnes of maize for animal feed. The tender is open to suppliers from Argentina and Brazil.
The deadline for tender submissions is Thursday, and successful bidders will be required to deliver the maize in six shipments of 30,000 to 40,000 tonnes each, scheduled for October.
This development follows a recent international tender for feed corn supplies, which closed last week. Although the exact quantity purchased was not disclosed, European traders believe that the Professional Grains Bureau has secured an unspecified amount of feed corn from either Argentina or Brazil.
The latest tender highlights Algeria’s efforts to secure a stable supply of maize for animal feed, with the country relying on imports from key suppliers like Argentina and Brazil.
