Tunisia has attracted more than 4,000 foreign-owned companies, generating nearly 460,000 jobs, Prime Minister Sara Zaafrani Zenzri announced, highlighting the country’s growing appeal to international investors.
Speaking at the Tunisian-Algerian Economic Forum, the Prime Minister said the upward trend in foreign investment reflects the seriousness of the structural reforms currently being implemented, as well as the confidence Tunisia enjoys among regional and international partners.
Zaafrani Zenzri explained that these efforts are part of Tunisia Vision 2035, which she described as a new social contract aimed at achieving a comprehensive economic transformation. The strategy seeks to position Tunisia among competitive, knowledge- and innovation-based economies, while ensuring greater transparency in transactions, simplified administrative procedures, and a more investment-friendly business environment.
She also revealed that Tunisia has completed preparations for the 2026–2030 Development Plan, which, for the first time in the country’s history and in line with the vision of President Kaïs Saïed, adopts a bottom-up approach. This methodology starts at the local level before advancing to regional, territorial, and national stages.
According to the Prime Minister, this approach is designed to address the real needs of citizens, promote fair and inclusive economic and social integration across regions, and create an economic climate that encourages investment while ensuring policy coherence between development programs and projects.
