Geographical proximity and favourable trading conditions
Sustainable tourism and digital services
Tunisia's close proximity to Europe and its resulting short travel routes provide excellent opportunities for tourism operators and digital service providers to benefit from the lucrative European market. The geographical, cultural and economic ties between Tunisia and Europe create ideal conditions for long-term partnerships.
The Mediterranean climate - together with the fine sandy beaches, paradisiacal desert oases and a 3,000-year-old cultural history - is also responsible for Europeans eagerness to discover Tunisia as a unique travel destination. European tour operators are particularly looking for sustainable tourism offers:
- Cultural and adventure tours, for example nature and bird watching, mountain biking
- Family trips with accommodation in eco-hotels
- Adventure tours to the Tunisian Sahara, eg. desert safaris or camel trekking.
At the same time, Tunisia has rapidly developed into an attractive digital hub for Europe. Especially in the field of digital products and services, the country offers highly qualified professionals, competitive costs and strong technological expertise.
If you are looking for trading partners in Europe, IPD is your ideal partner.
