From 4th to 10th September 2025, the Algerian capital will become the epicentre of African trade.
More than a mere economic gathering, the 4th edition of the Intra-African Trade Fair (IATF) symbolizes Algeria’s unwavering continental ambition-one that the nation is determined to fully embrace.
A “work of projection and observation”- such was the recognition given to the substantial efforts undertaken following a thorough consultation on the current state of preparations and the key recommendations concerning the intensification of the organisational phase of the 4th Intra-African Trade Fair, scheduled to take place in Algiers from 4th to 10th September 2025. This event far exceeds the scope of a conventional economic exhibition.
In a constantly evolving geopolitical context where shifting balances redefine Africa’s priorities, the organization of this fair in Algiers stands as a bold undertaking-a pivotal moment in the continent’s trajectory. It provides Algeria with a unique opportunity to showcase its capacity to align economic aspirations with Logistical expertise and forward-thinking diplomacy.
The IATF 2025 is a strategic occasion for Algeria to reaffirm its place within the African economic sphere and to project a revitalized image of its productive capabilities. It aims to elevate intra-African cooperation to a structural level, yielding tangible outcomes in terms of trade facilitation and deeper integration into the continent’s commercial momentum.
Yet, this continental fair goes well beyond the framework of a trade exhibition-it represents a critical milestone in the operationalization of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), offering Algeria an unparalleled platform to highlight its export potential.
The political commitment surrounding the event is a testament to the Algerian authorities’ resolve to make the IATF a structural success that serves the cause of regional integration. Beyond visibility, the ultimate goal is to transform the fair into a lever for sustainable economic diversification and a cornerstone of Algeria’s strategic repositioning.
Algiers is preparing to host a landmark event that embodies the continent’s economic convergence. This dynamic follows the historic continuity of Algeria’s commitment to African unity. Since gaining independence, the country has distinguished itself by actively supporting liberation movements and consistently engaging in a diplomacy that champions continental causes. Algeria’s leading role within the African Union and its election to head numerous AU bodies are a direct reflection of this legacy-legitimizing Algiers as the host city of a continental event eagerly anticipated by entrepreneurs and economic experts alike.
“To align all available means with the nation’s African ambition”- this is the guiding principle shaping Algeria’s strategic deployment of resources to enhance its image and influence. It involves the meticulous coordination of infrastructure, logistics, administrative procedures, protocol, financing, customs facilitation, transportation, accommodation, tourism, communication, and marketing.
President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, unwavering in his Pan-African convictions, has consistently worked to strengthen political alignment across the continent. His vision is rooted in active solidarity, mutual support in facing common challenges, and, above all, a clear economic ambition initiating a new growth dynamic powered by Africa’s internal capacities and driven by intra-African trade.
The slogan “Africa for Africans,” which served as a foundational pillar of Pan-Africanism since the establishment of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), was first proclaimed from Algiers. It is no coincidence that today’s pursuit of African economic renewal is once again anchored in this land of resistance and revolutionary fervour.
Through IATF’ 2025, Algeria reasserts its role as a strategic crossroads and a driving force behind autonomous continental development.
