Improving economic conditions
Tunisia's import market has grown overall for the last five years, and growth is projected to continue year on year until at least 2024 (IMF, 2019). The country has also experienced positive GDP growth every year over the same period. If you are planning to export to Tunisia, or plan to sell to the wider African market, Tunisia may be a good market for you.
Demand for UK goods
Tunisia is the UK's 96th largest export market, and 75% of all exports in the year up until March 2018 were goods (ONS, 2019). The top goods imported from the UK were oil, textiles, medicines, cars and electrical goods (ONS, 2019). Therefore, if you are a UK business exporting these goods, Tunisia could be a good market for you.
