Algeria streamlines import quality controls to a few hours

On Saturday, November 7, Prime Minister Seifi Ghrib inaugurated two new quality control laboratories at Algiers' port and international airport. Built by the Ministry of National Defense under the directives of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, these facilities are designed to expedite the inspection of imported goods while enhancing consumer safety. By replacing a process that previously took up to 72 hours with a system delivering results in just a few hours, the government aims to boost economic efficiency. This inter-sectoral project is intended to be expanded to other ports and border crossings across the nation in the near future.
