The inauguration of TUI’s new offices in Sousse, Tunisia Global Business Services, on January 28 marks a significant milestone in the group’s expansion in Tunisia. This strategic project positions the city as a key regional hub for TUI’s travel services, further strengthening Tunisia’s role within the group’s international network.
With the opening of these new offices in Sousse, TUI, the global leader in tourism and travel, reaffirms its ambition to develop high-quality travel services at the heart of the MENA region. Sousse is now a strategic center managing 320,000 trips annually. This development will not only provide a more efficient platform for travel management but also enhance TUI’s relationships with its regional and international partners.
The launch of these offices in Sousse also has positive implications for the local economy. The on-site team, composed of 150 employees, primarily works in English and German, two of TUI’s key business languages. “Our employees are trained to deliver excellent services and meet the growing needs of international clients. We are highly impressed by the skills and enthusiasm of our team, which reassures us that our international hub project in Tunisia has all the elements for success in the medium term,” stated Mr. Simon Cope, Managing Director, during the inauguration ceremony attended by a delegation from FIPA Tunisia, the main Tunisian partner of this new project.
The opening of this site in Tunisia aligns with TUI’s long-term strategy to strengthen its presence in emerging markets. In addition to its customer service and travel management activities, the company is also exploring collaboration opportunities with local stakeholders to expand its service offerings.
The inauguration of TUI’s Tunisia Global Business Services in Sousse is an opportunity to celebrate the strong relationship between Tunisia and the international group, which dates back to 1995 when TUI first began operations in the country through a partnership with a local player. By delivering top-quality services and leveraging its strategic position, TUI is paving the way for a prosperous future for Tunisia’s tourism industry and business travel sector.
