The reality of E-commerce and Logistic in Algeria

Abstract

E-commerce, which has become a fierce competitor of traditional trade in terms of volume of transactions and the rate of growth, and the enormous evolution of this field in the world, was the result of the progressive development of basic infrastructure essential for and compatible with E-commerce. However, the logistics services represented particularly by the transport, storage, packaging, handling and delivery are still considered as the most important axes in E-commerce, object of our study which aims to highlight the reality of E-commerce in Algeria, in order to contribute to the development of this sector.

Moreover, the transport and postal markets in Algeria are - because of the parallel market - suffering and in a state of lawlessness, particularly the transport sector whose creation of a regulatory authority to organize it becomes a necessity .

Finally, the recommendations of this study are summarized in the acceleration in the implementation of the project of E-Algeria, the involvement of all ministries in its implementation, the establishment of an independent and special law governing the E -commerce, encouraging investment in the postal and transport sector by fighting against the parallel market and particularly the creation of a regulatory authority for the transport sector in Algeria.
