25/12/2006 17:21

China has become Algeria's second largest supply country in November, with Chinese exports to the country amounting to US$170 million, according to statistics released by Algerian Customs yesterday.
France, the United States and Italy registered the first, third and fourth largest suppliers of Algeria with an export volume of US$322 million, US$164 million and US$142 million, respectively.
During the past three quarters, China ranked the third largest supplier with an export volume of US$1.169 billion, following France and Italy with US$3.241 billion and US$1.394 billion, respectively.
It was estimated by Algerian Customs that if China continues to maintain the momentum in November, it could probably surpass Italy to become the second largest supplier to Algeria by the end of 2006.
