◆ Market analysis:
With an area of 238 square kilometers (together with the suburbs), Alger, the capital, is the second largest country in Africa, second only to Sudan, and the tenth in the world, with a population of 36 million. It is located at 37 degrees north latitude. It borders the Mediterranean Sea in the north, Tunisia and Libya in the east, Morocco in the west, Mali, Niger, Mauritania and Western Sahara in the south and southwest. Algeria has a large scale of investment prospects, especially in construction. Construction investors are growing rapidly at an annual growth rate of 6%. Today, a huge development project with an investment of 50 billion dollars in infrastructure and new housing construction is quietly going on in Algeria. It mainly focuses on infrastructure construction and residential projects, including the construction of 1000 km east-west expressway, 60 backbone high-speed railways, 80 dams, as well as the construction of expressways, airports, ports, university towns, etc., attracting the attention of the international building materials market.
Business opportunities in Afghanistan:
With the first phase of the Algerian million housing plan entering the delivery period and the second phase of construction commencement, we are faced with a huge building materials market. Because Algeria is an underdeveloped country with low per capita income, compared with high-end building materials brands in European and American countries, Chinese building materials are more competitive with good quality and low price. Due to the low degree of openness in China and the underdeveloped network information, many domestic enterprises have no idea of this market. Algeria Building Materials Fair just makes up for this shortage, and it is a good opportunity to intervene in the building materials market of this country through the exhibition.
1. Afghanistan's economy is the second largest in Africa, second only to South Africa.
2. Algeria is one of the top ten major import source countries, and China ranks the third (France, Italy, China, the United States, Germany, Spain, Japan, Argentina, Turkey, South Korea)
3. In Algeria, 800000 housing units will be built in 2012-2013, and the Algerian Ministry of Housing actively promotes foreign enterprises and local enterprises to jointly build housing construction enterprises.
4. China has helped Algeria, Nigeria, Zambia and other African countries establish special economic zones to attract foreign investment. The two countries enjoy profound traditional friendship in Arab Chinese relations. Since the establishment of diplomatic ties on December 20, 1958, the friendly cooperative relations between the two countries have been developing continuously. China and Argentina formally established strategic cooperative relations during President Hu Jintao's visit to Afghanistan in 2004
5. The main products imported from China are stainless steel, construction machinery, auto parts, mechanical parts, etc. According to our customs statistics, China's exports to Afghanistan have increased year by year, with growth rates of more than 30% in the past six years.
