Egypt will begin receiving a delayed Russian shipment of 430,000 tons of wheat in November, Supply Minister Sherif Farouk told Bloomberg on Monday.
Farouk didn’t provide additional details and declined to lay out the reasons behind the delay in the deal that was reached in September. The shipment had been planned for October, with delivery no later than the first week of November.
