In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic had a severe impact on retailing in Algeria. Firstly, the Algerian economy was hit by a double whammy in 2020 - COVID-19 and plummeting oil prices. Algeria is highly dependent on oil exports and this led to a devaluation of the dinar and a general increase in inflation. This in turn led to lower disposable incomes and resulted in an overall small decline in current value sales in retailing in 2020.

This 'Retailing in Algeria' report offers insight into key trends and developments driving the industry. The report examines all retail channels to provide sector insight. Channels include hypermarkets, supermarkets, discounters, convenience stores, mixed retailers, health and beauty retailers, clothing and footwear retailers, furniture and furnishing stores, DIY and hardware stores, durable goods retailers, leisure and personal goods retailers.
