# Retail chains headquartered in Algeria

Tamtam tracks 34 retail chains headquartered in Algeria. This list ranks all of them by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Lidl Italia, Algérie Telecom and Naftal spa. Their median headcount is 865. Half of them were founded in 2000 or later.

These companies are primarily large Algerian enterprises, predominantly in telecommunications, banking, and state-owned services. Significant players include Algérie Telecom, a major telecommunications provider; Naftal spa, which distributes petroleum products across Algeria; Ooredoo Algerie, offering mobile and broadband solutions; and Algérie Poste, providing legal services. The list also features several prominent banks like BNA Algérie and Société Générale Algérie, alongside transportation companies such as AIR ALGÉRIE.

A notable pattern is the concentration of headquarters in Algiers and its surrounding areas like Chéraga, Mohammadia, and Bab Ezzouar, indicating Algiers as a central hub for major Algerian companies. The founding dates show a mix of older state-owned entities from the 1960s and 1980s, alongside a cluster of telecommunications companies established in the early 2000s.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
