This initiative involves 35 simultaneous operations from 13 wilayas, targeting 19 international destinations across Europe, the Arab world, Africa, and other global markets. The launch signals Algeria's commitment to diversifying its economy and strengthening the "Made in DZ" brand internationally. Minister Kamal Rezig officially commenced the operation from Tizi-Ouzou, with other walis participating via videoconference from strategic export hubs including El M'Ghair, Mostaganem, Relizane, Oran, Sétif, Jijel, Algiers, Bordj Bou Arreridj, Annaba, Béjaïa, Skikda, and Biskra.

The diverse cargo includes agricultural products like cherry tomatoes, fresh fruits, dates, and dairy products, as well as industrial goods such as cement, clinker, construction iron, ceramics, spare parts, home appliances, textiles, paper, cleaning products, and packaging solutions. The ministry stated that this operation reflects the growing momentum in Algeria's non-hydrocarbon exports, marking a strategic shift to reduce reliance on oil revenues and demonstrate the competitiveness of national industries.
