In a statement to APS, Abdelatif El-Houari, deputy director in charge of monitoring and promoting exports at the Ministry, said that the show, which runs from September 16 to 19, offers visitors an opportunity to discover various products from the Algerian food and beverage industries, asserting that these products have been a real success.

 

In this context, he emphasized that the show represents a promising space for the promotion of Algerian products on the Saudi market, “offering great opportunities for access, given the quality of Algerian products and their competitive prices”, a fact affirmed by the Algerian ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia during his visit to the “Algeria” pavilion on the first day of the event.

 

Mr. Houari also pointed out that the show, which is being held at the Riyadh International Conference and Exhibition Center (RICEC), is also an opportunity to organize meetings to exchange expertise with Algerian exhibitors, notably with the participation of over 50 countries.

 

In addition to Algeria's participation in the show, the 14th session of the Algerian-Saudi Business Council was held on Tuesday, attended by Algeria's ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Saudi Arabia's ambassador to Algeria, and attended by over 100 companies and economic operators from both countries.

 

During the meeting, both parties discussed how to strengthen bilateral trade relations and the mechanisms for developing them in areas of common interest. Algerian and Saudi businessmen explored opportunities for cooperation and partnership on a win-win basis.

The Algerian delegation invited Saudi economic operators to invest in Algeria, given the incentives and advantages granted to foreign investors.

In addition, as part of the official program for Algeria's participation in the 2024 economic events and exhibitions abroad, 15 Algerian companies are taking part in the 33rd edition of the International Food and Beverage Exhibition in Moscow, Russia, from September 17 to 20, 2024, supervised by the Ministry of Trade and Export Promotion.

This economic event provides an opportunity to promote the quality of Algerian products in various sectors of the agri-food industry on the Russian market.
