USGBC presents 2025/26 U.S. corn quality findings to Saudi, MENA buyers

February 22, 2026 |

In Kenya, Milling Middle East & Africa reported that the U.S. Grains & BioProducts Council (USGBC) has reinforced its engagement with the Middle East and North Africa through a series of rollout events in Saudi Arabia, presenting the findings of its 2025/2026 Corn Harvest Quality Report to key regional buyers and industry stakeholders.

The events, held in Riyadh and Jeddah, brought together importers, feed manufacturers and end-users from across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and the wider MENA region, highlighting U.S. corn’s performance, consistency and value proposition.

According to Ramy H. Taieb, USGBC regional director for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), hosting regional conferences remains a core part of the Council’s market development strategy.

He said such platforms allow customers to engage directly with U.S. producers and exporters, supporting the establishment of long-term, mutually beneficial trade relationships.

Taieb added that the Council has maintained a long-standing presence in the Saudi market, with recent efforts focused on developing storage programs to improve port logistics and offering transparent comparisons of U.S. corn against competing origins in terms of performance and financial returns.
