Algeria’s state grains agency OAIC bought 660,000 MT of optional-origin milling wheat in an import tender that closed on 17 Oct. OAIC paid prices ranging from $210 to $212.50 a tonne, cost and freight included. Most of the wheat was expected to be sourced in France, Algeria’s main supplier. Some volume may also be sourced in Argentina, depending on the quality of its upcoming harvest and shipping costs from the South American country. The tender called for the wheat to be shipped in January.
