Trade balance
Algeria is the world's third-largest cork producer and supplies several European countries, annually exporting between USD 4.3 million and USD 7.5 million in cork. The country imports around USD 530 million solely in sawn, sliced, or peeled wood a year, apart from other materials from this sector.
The Arab nation launched a program to build over one million housing units by 2024, opening excellent prospects for the timber sector. Algeria has 43 million inhabitants, and the demand for wood is high.
