The establishment of large industrial units in the interior regions of Tunisia constitutes a strong signal for national economic development, particularly when these investments are made by Tunisian companies.
In the Sbikha industrial zone, in the Kairouan governorate , the Tunisian company Cofat , a subsidiary of the Elloumi Group and a leading manufacturer of electrical systems for the automotive industry, officially inaugurated its new industrial site. This project, the largest ever undertaken in the region, is a major driver of territorial development and economic inclusion.
With its strong operational capacity , this new factory will directly benefit local managers and workers. Built in less than two years, this next-generation Tunisian factory is equipped with the most advanced industrial technologies and is dedicated to the production of electrical components for electric vehicles , destined for international automotive manufacturers and suppliers.
From its initial phase, the site is expected to generate nearly 2,000 direct jobs , confirming Tunisia's attractiveness as a competitive industrial platform in the automotive sector. Driven by recognized local skills, proven industrial expertise, and the capacity to integrate into global value chains, this project illustrates the potential for sustainable growth in the Tunisian automotive sector, despite a challenging economic environment.
