Tunisia has embarked on sweeping economic reforms focused on fueling foreign investment, boosting private sector growth, and integrating into global value chains.
Tunisia has climbed over 30 places in the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business rankings within 5 years due to reforms reducing red tape and digitization. This makes the country an attractive investment destination.
Attractive incentives in the form of tax breaks, subsidies, and exemptions have been instituted across priority sectors such as: renewables, automotive, aerospace to encourage foreign direct investment.
Significant upgrades to transport networks, industrial parks, and IT connectivity have enhanced Tunisia’s infrastructure. This enables efficiency gains and integration with global supply chains. Tunisia’s skilled, tech-savvy talent pool provides investor access to qualified human capital equipped to support knowledge-based industries.
The structural improvements underway promise to establish Tunisia as a hub for export-oriented manufacturing and higher value-added services.
Tunisia’s economic reforms extend beyond fiscal incentives and infrastructure upgrades. Efforts are underway to nurture homegrown innovation through public-private partnerships focused on research and development in high-potential sectors like renewable energy, electric vehicles and agritech. The strengthening of Tunisia’s intellectual property rights framework also signals the country’s commitment to protecting investor interests and technologies.
