Earlier Report Observations

Algerian fresh beans production began at 93.2 thousand tons in 2018, facing persistent challenges from climatic variability and insufficient domestic cultivation. The market volume grew to 100.3 thousand tons by 2020, even as partial COVID-19 lockdowns disrupted distribution networks and created regional supply imbalances.

A contraction to 88.0 thousand tons occurred in 2021, but the market rebounded to 93.7 thousand tons the following year, recovering close to pre-pandemic levels.

In 2023, production reached a peak of 103.6 thousand tons. This growth was facilitated by the state-owned OAIC (Office Algérien Interprofessionnel des Céréales), which strengthened supply through managed import programs. Concurrently, the processed vegetables segment, including frozen beans, recorded an 8% value increase, signaling broader market development and shifting consumer preferences towards healthy options.
