List of supermarket chains in Algeria

This is the list of supermarket chains in Algeria.[1] The Algerian chain Ardis (owned by Algerian group Arcofina) is currently operating one hypermarket in the country in Mohammadia, just outside of Algiers. In the future Ardis will open 19 hypermarkets in the country, the next hypermarket will open near Oran in Bir El Djir.[2][3] Carrefour ended their partnership with the Algerian group Arcofina in February 19, 2009. "The concept of mass distribution does not work in Algeria," added Carrefour. Before that, Carrefour had still only 1 store opened as of 2009 of 18 hypermarkets planned by 2012. The private group Arcofina explained that there was delay because of difficulties in finding available land to open hypermarkets. Arcofina is now focusing on opening hypermarkets in the future under the Ardis brand.[4][5]
