Consumer health growth is slowing down due to economic hardship

Consumer health’s performance slowed in 2018 compared with the review period CAGR due to multiple factors. The limited availability of imported products as the government has taken decisions to reduce imports in order to promote and protect domestic production has had a negative effect on sales of consumer health products.

Increasing domestic production is promoted by the Algerian government

In order to curb the country’s dependence on imports and maintain the availability of low-cost medicines, the Algerian government has been setting new rules to protect domestic production. Due to the severe trade imbalance, government-imposed obstacles and regulations have made it unprofitable for international pharmaceutical companies to import most medicines.

Local producers of generics continue increasing their share in 2018

The consumer health market is dominated by large laboratories such as the publically owned Saidal Algerie SpA and the international player Sanofi-Aventis Algérie SpA, which produces drugs locally. Domestic producers have been given a chance to profit from the ban on imported products, by having similar generics manufactured locally.

Consumer health products are sold almost exclusively in chemists/pharmacies

According to Algerian legislation, medicines can only be sold to consumers through chemists/pharmacies in Algeria. Thus, most consumer health products are sold through this channel in the country.

Consumer health is expected to perform positively over the forecast period

Despite the economic hardship, consumer health is expected to grow over the forecast period, due to favourable demographic trends and increasing health concerns. Moreover, rising levels of domestic production are projected to drive more sales growth as they will help to suppress unit price increases over the forecast period, leading OTC and other consumer health categories to become more affordable for most Algerian consumers, which will result in sales rising in volume terms.
