Tunisia Confirms its Attractiveness to Foreign Investors

On Tuesday, December 16, 2025, Samir Abdelhafidh, Minister of Economy and Planning, met with Tiego Morira Da Silva, General Manager of the Portuguese company BA Glass, specializing in the manufacture of glass products. This meeting laid the foundation for a promising future investment on Tunisian soil.

A Promising Investment

During the exchange, the General Manager of BA Glass presented an overview of his company's international activities and ambitions for the coming years. According to him, Tunisia stands out for its strategic geographical position, the quality of its human resources, and a favorable business environment. These advantages perfectly match BA Glass's strategy to expand its activities to new, promising markets, particularly on the African continent.

Alignment of Objectives

On his part, Minister Abdelhafidh welcomed this choice and highlighted the alignment of the company's objectives with Tunisia's priorities, namely job creation, transfer of modern technologies, and support for exports. Furthermore, he reaffirmed the total commitment of the ministry and its specialized structures to accompany the company and ensure the launch of its activities in the best possible conditions.

A Vote of Confidence

This investment not only illustrates the confidence of foreign companies in Tunisia's potential but also the country's growing attractiveness for industrial projects focused on Africa. BA Glass is thus preparing to write a new chapter in its development, while contributing to the dynamization of the local economy and the strengthening of Tunisia's industrial fabric.
