The first phase will create 210 jobs, according to the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency (FIPA-Tunisie).
In anticipation of this imminent establishment, the first of its kind in Africa, a delegation from this company, European leader in packaging systems with 3 production sites in Eastern Europe, recently visited Tunisia to “pursue discussions concerning the progress of the implementation of its subsidiary”, indicated the same source on Monday.
