How does Make in Algeria work?
A clear, structured and transparent method. Every project follows the same controlled process, from first request to optional ongoing support.
Eight stages, from request to ongoing support
The same structured process applies to every mission, whatever the product or sector.
1. Needs analysis
Understanding exactly what you need before any search begins.
2. Feasibility study
Assessing whether the project is realistic before any search begins.
3. Manufacturer search
Identifying companies that match the project's criteria.
4. Qualification
A first qualification pass on every pre-selected company.
5. Verification
Additional checks, where included in the mission.
6. Results presentation
Shortlisted manufacturers presented in a structured format.
7. Business introduction
Make in Algeria organizes the introduction between both parties.
8. Optional support
Continued involvement, depending on your needs.
What each stage actually involves
Open a stage to see what we look at, and what it produces.
1. Needs analysis
The project begins with a precise understanding of the buyer's request. Elements studied can include:
- The product sought
- Technical characteristics
- Quantities
- Budget
- Timelines
- Destination country
- Required certifications
The objective is to avoid any ambiguity before research begins.
2. Feasibility study
Before any search, Make in Algeria assesses the feasibility of the project. This stage helps identify:
- The sectors concerned
- Potential constraints
- Missing information
- Recommended verification levels
In some cases, this analysis may lead us to suggest adjustments before continuing.
3. Manufacturer search
Our team identifies companies matching the project's criteria. The search can draw on:
- Make in Algeria's own network
- Documentary research
- Professional databases
- Direct contacts
The objective is to establish a relevant first selection.
4. Qualification
Every pre-selected company undergoes a first qualification pass. Depending on the mission, this can cover:
- Products
- Capacities
- Markets
- Responsiveness
- Available documents
Insufficient information is clearly flagged, not glossed over.
5. Verification
Where included in the mission, additional checks can be carried out, for example:
- Documentary analysis
- Verification of specific information
- Factory visit
- Coordination of an external technical audit
The level of verification always depends on the service chosen.
6. Results presentation
Shortlisted manufacturers are presented in a structured format. Deliverables can include:
- A summary
- A list of manufacturers
- A qualification report
- Verified elements
- Points still to confirm
The objective is to provide a clear basis for decision-making.
7. Business introduction
Once conditions are met, Make in Algeria organizes the introduction between both parties. This can include:
- Mutual presentation
- Organizing a video call
- Sharing contact details
- Preparing initial exchanges
The platform facilitates the relationship without replacing commercial negotiation.
8. Optional support
Depending on your needs, Make in Algeria can continue its involvement, for example:
- Sample coordination
- Follow-up on exchanges
- Organizing visits
- Commercial support
- Export representation
This phase is optional and depends on the service selected.
