Tunisia-India economic cooperation and trade expansion

Overview

Tunisia and India have initiated efforts to strengthen economic ties and diversify commercial relations through the establishment of the Tunisia-India Joint Business Forum. Organized by Conect International, the Indian Embassy in Tunis, and the Confederation of Indian Industry, the forum serves as a platform for business exchange and investment partnership.

Bilateral trade, currently estimated between $500 million and $521 million, is targeted to reach $1 billion by 2030. To sustain this momentum, officials have proposed creating a bilateral business chamber and holding recurring economic forums every six months, alternating between the two nations.

Key sectors for cooperation include pharmaceuticals, digital services, information technology, agribusiness, renewable energy, and automotive components. Discussions also emphasized Tunisia’s strategic role as a gateway to Africa, Europe, and the Mediterranean for Indian investors. Aslan Berejeb, President of Conect, noted that Tunisia must adopt a new mindset to better engage with the Indian market, moving beyond traditional focuses on Europe and the Middle East.
