Algeria, as one of the largest economies in North Africa, has a burgeoning automotive market. With a vehicle population exceeding 650 million, and a significant portion of these vehicles being old - aged due to the lack of a mandatory vehicle scrappage policy, the demand for automotive parts and maintenance services is sky - high. The country's limited domestic automotive manufacturing capabilities mean that there is a huge reliance on imported auto parts. Additionally, its strategic geographical location, with close trade links to Europe and other African countries, makes Algeria an ideal springboard for companies looking to expand into the surrounding regions.
