Tunisia as a strategic hub for textile investments and international trade. With its advantageous geographic location between North Africa and the Mediterranean, Tunisia offers a wealth of opportunities for global businesses aiming to expand into the region.
The country boasts a skilled workforce of over 10,000 engineers, competitive labor costs, proximity to European markets, and favorable trade agreements, making it an ideal base for textile production and exports. Notably, Tunisia is one of the EU’s top suppliers of ready-made garments, with 90% of apparel exports destined for countries like France, Italy, and Germany.
Despite its strength in clothing manufacturing, the country faces a shortfall in yarn and fabric production, opening the door for new investment opportunities in these areas. Tunisia’s textile and clothing sector accounts for over 25% of its total exports, underlining its central role in the national economy.
Furthermore, the high proportion of consumer goods imports (~30%), especially raw materials like cotton, fabrics, and machinery, highlights the country’s reliance on international suppliers—making Intertex Tunisia an ideal platform for global exporters.
The event will welcome businesses across a range of sectors, offering unmatched access to buyers, investors, and government decision-makers from both Europe and Africa. Organized in a politically stable and business-friendly environment, the 2025 edition promises to be a key networking, sourcing, and investment forum for the international textile community.
