Tunisia Attracts International Groups
Tunisia is increasingly seducing international groups. On January 27, 2026, a delegation from Scherdel, a global player in the mobility sector, was welcomed by FIPA-Tunisia to explore investment opportunities in the country. The goal: to understand the terrain, meet the right contacts, and measure the potential for establishment.
Tunisia's Advantages and Germany's Role
The delegation met with the Tunisian Automotive Association, economic actors, and visited several industrial sites. The human capital and robust infrastructure reinforce our advantage. Tunisia benefits from a strategic geographical position and an incentive framework for investors. Germany is an important partner. In 2023, its investments reached 237.9 million dinars. In the first half of 2025, they represented 124.2 million dinars, or nearly 7.5% of FDI flows outside of energy. Projects like Zollner Elektronik demonstrate its commitment to creating qualified jobs and supporting the Tunisian industry.
Scherdel Considers Establishment
At the end of its visit, the group expressed genuine enthusiasm for the idea of moving forward with discussions. It's worth noting that Scherdel is a heavyweight: 7,000 talents and 35 sites around the globe. Seeing such a major player take a close interest in Tunisia is a strong signal. A local establishment would be excellent news, not only for job creation but also for giving a boost to our industrial know-how.
A Proof of Tunisia's International Appeal
This is also proof that Tunisia continues to attract international attention. Between German engineering and Tunisian potential, one thing is certain: the economic future is being built together. With its strategic location and incentive framework, Tunisia is poised to become a hub for international investment and cooperation. The visit of the Scherdel delegation is a testament to the country's growing appeal and its potential for growth and development.
