Algeria Targets Over $7 Billion in Non-Hydrocarbon Exports by End of 2026

Algeria is implementing an ambitious strategy to surpass $7 billion in non-hydrocarbon exports by the end of 2026, aiming to increase their share to 50% of total national exports. Following a performance of $5.16 billion in 2025, the country has successfully expanded its reach from 33 to 57 export destinations. The export base has diversified to include food processing, electrical equipment, construction materials, and pharmaceuticals. Notable progress was also seen in the date sector, which generated $98.32 million in 2025. To bolster this momentum, the government has processed nearly 3,900 support applications through the Export Promotion Fund and is preparing to launch the Tindouf free trade zone to strengthen ties with West Africa, with a long-term goal of hitting $30 billion in non-hydrocarbon exports by 2030.
