Maltese Tunisian business and trade ties strengthened

For the third time this year, the chairman of the Maltese-Tunisian Business Council Simon Alden, travelled to Tunisia as part of a business delegation.

Several members of the Business Council also participated in the trade mission organised by Malta Enterprise.

The mission was the second Malta Enterprise led mission to Tunisia this year.

As was the case during the last mission, the visit was organised with the assistance of the Maltese Embassy in Tunis, which took a leading role in organising one-to-one meetings between the Maltese business persons and their Tunisian counterparts.

“The Maltese-Tunisian Business Council is very pleased to have worked closely with Malta Enterprise and the Maltese Embassy in Tunis over the past year to raise awareness about the business opportunities which exist for Maltese businesses in this neighbouring market,” stated Mr Alden.

“Evidently, the changes which Tunisia is going through following its ‘Jasmine Re-volution’ will present challenges to companies doing business in the country, but will also present the well prepared and persistent businesses with great opportunities.”

The Maltese-Tunisian Business Council will continue to initiate activities aimed at increasing business exchanges between the two countries and will continue to expand its network of businesses and stakeholders with a shared interest in this goal.
