German - Algerian Cooperation: Emergence of the Agro-Logistics Beverage Cluster

Öz

Globalization and the opening up of the Algerian market have led to the emergence of numerous partnerships with the European Union countries, particularly with Germany. A country that has been able to differentiate itself by relying on its networks of players and which has seen the emergence of numerous internationally renowned clusters, this experience is discussed in detail in this study. The success of this experience has enabled Algeria to play the role of a pivotal country, participating in the emergence of cooperation aimed at strengthening cross-sectoral coordination and local and national economic development through the establishment of cluster systems in Algeria. This contribution aims to provide an overview of the impact of German-Algerian cooperation under the DEVED-GIZ program, which is based on the establishment of clusters in Algeria as a tool for strengthening competitiveness and innovation within the country. To this end, we illustrate the case of the agro-logistics beverage cluster located in the wilaya of Bejaia, which represents a major axis of Algerian industrial policy.

Alman - Cezayir İşbirliği: Tarımsal Lojistik İçecek Kümesinin Ortaya Çıkışı

Öz

Küreselleşme ve Cezayir pazarının açılması, başta Almanya olmak üzere Avrupa Birliği ülkeleri ile çok sayıda ortaklığın ortaya çıkmasına yol açmıştır. Sahip olduğu oyuncu ağlarına güvenerek kendini farklılaştırmayı başaran ve uluslararası üne sahip bir dizi kümenin ortaya çıkmasına tanık olan bir ülke olan Cezayir için bu deneyim, bu çalışmada ayrıntılı olarak ele alınmıştır. Bu deneyiminin başarısından yararlanarak Cezayir'de küme sistemlerinin kurulması yoluyla sektörler arası koordinasyonu ve yerel ve ulusal ekonomik kalkınmayı güçlendirmeyi amaçlayan işbirliğinin ortaya çıkmasına katılarak öncü ülke rolünü oynamasını sağlamıştır. Bu katkı, Cezayir'de kümelenmelerin ülke içinde rekabetçiliği ve yeniliği güçlendirmek için bir araç olarak uygulanmasına dayanan DEVED-GIZ programı kapsamındaki Alman-Cezayir işbirliğinin etkisine genel bir bakış sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaçla, Cezayir sanayi politikasının önemli bir eksenini temsil eden Bejaia vilayetinde yer alan tarım-lojistik içecek kümelenmesi örneğini ele alıyoruz.
