Algeria is facing a surge in demand for meat during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan and is importing significant quantities of beef and lamb to stabilize prices amid economic challenges. The country, known for its oil wealth, is importing food and fuel to meet the needs of Algerians preparing nightly feasts during Ramadan. Algerians, eager to purchase imported meat from countries like Australia, are visiting newly opened stores staffed by butchers in white coats. While some, like retired teacher Rabah Belahouane, view the availability of imported meat as a positive development, others remain skeptical despite the perceived high quality of the product.
