Algeria’s industry minister, Ahmed Zgdar, said his ministry was taking inventory of car manufacturing plants confiscated by court order.
He said his ministry is currently working to build a solid foundation to meet the needs of the local auto market through “work that is preparing to entrust this task to a national complex that includes several institutions active in the sector.”
Zgdar explained that these institutions will be merged into a single complex, including about 42 institutions.
He added that more than 9,000 jobs have been saved among the confiscated enterprises in construction, industry and transport.
