The document was signed by the general manager of the Algerian company “Achir,” Mohamed Cherfaoui, and the Sales Manager of the Belgian company Ninolac International, Gilles Crahay, in the presence of the minister of Industry and pharmaceutical production, Ali Aoun, and the chairman of the Council of the Algerian Economic Renewal (CREA), Kamel Moula.
By virtue of the agreement, an industrial unit will be created in Ain Boucif, province of Medea (90-km southwest of Algiers), with cutting-edge logistics equipment, in collaboration with European partners.
