Boulenouar emphasized the current ample supply of vegetables, fruits, and various types of meat, both red and white.<\/p>\n<p>He believes this surplus will contribute to price stability, attributing it to increased agricultural production, the availability of subsidized goods, and the active participation of farmers and producers.<\/p>\n<p>Boulenouar stated that ANCA supports the measures taken by the Ministry of Internal Trade to regulate the national market. &#8220;These measures will ensure the availability of diverse food products at regulated prices accessible to consumers, while also intensifying oversight of traders and combating speculation and hoarding,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Boulenouar added, &#8220;New commercial spaces and areas will be established across all municipalities nationwide, complementing existing neighborhood markets to provide a variety of food products.&#8221; He stressed that the holy month will feature regulated prices, enabling traders to implement promotional sales and discounts.<\/p>\n<p>The ANCA president revealed that the association will launch a series of nationwide awareness campaigns during Ramadan. These campaigns, according to Boulenouar, will focus on promoting rational consumption, combating waste, and reducing the intake of sugar and salt.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Boulenouar announced that starting at the end of December, ANCA will organize regional awareness campaigns to promote the widespread adoption of electronic payments via smartphones. <em>These initiatives aim to modernize transactions and enhance convenience for both consumers and businesses.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/?cat=1\">More Algeria articles on DZWatch<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\">DZWatch &#8211; Your News Portal<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Algiers, November 29, 2025 &#8211; The National Association of Traders and Artisans (ANCA) anticipates a significant abundance of widely consumed food products during the upcoming Ramadan period.<br \/>\nThis forecast was announced by ANCA President, Taher Boulenouar, during a press con&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28636,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"rank_math_lock_modified_date":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","iawp_total_views":8,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28635","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-algeria"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28635"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28635\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28637,"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28635\/revisions\/28637"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/28636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
