Nivatek Officially Launches its First African Subsidiary in Tunisia

Canadian manufacturer Nivatek, a specialist in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of high-quality metal components and complex assemblies, has officially inaugurated its first African subsidiary in Tunisia, specifically in Menzel Bouzelfa (Nabeul governorate). This new implantation is part of the company's internationalization strategy, already present in Canada and Mexico, where it primarily serves the automotive, aerospace, and energy sectors.

A Strong Signal for Tunisia's Industrial Competitiveness

Nivatek's arrival in Tunisia sends a strong signal, reflecting renewed confidence among foreign investors in the country's potential as a competitive industrial platform. This first Tunisian factory will enable Nivatek to strengthen its international presence while benefiting from a qualified workforce and a growing industrial ecosystem.

Optimizing Production Costs and Diversifying Manufacturing Sites

With several decades of experience, Nivatek is counting on Tunisia to optimize its production costs, diversify its manufacturing sites, and get closer to its European and African clients. Key factors in this choice include the availability of talent, a dynamic industrial fabric, and a strategic geographic location, just a few hours from major European hubs.

FIPA-Tunisia Supports High-Value Industrial Projects

By supporting this type of investment, the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency (FIPA-Tunisia) reaffirms Tunisia's attractiveness for high-value industrial projects. Nivatek's factory is also expected to contribute to the development of the local ecosystem, creating opportunities for Tunisian suppliers and subcontractors.
