Market/Industry Insights: Algeria’s cement industry has several characteristics which define an esoteric nature. The direct involvement of the government in the sector coupled with the various levels of interference ranging from price caps to significant energy subsidies and controlling of imports characterise this market.
Algeria is switching from a “sponge” of cement to an excess capacity industry, affecting the whole of the Mediterranean rim region.
Industry profitability although currently at very high levels, may be under pressure going forward depending on pricing in the market (likely to experience downward pressures due to developing overcapacity) and the removal or maintenance of energy subsidies by the government. In this light, Algeria exhibits a higher risk profile in the next five years.
