Increase in Tunisia's exports of foodstuffs

Tunisia's exports of foodstuffs registered during the first nine month of this year a growth percentage of 47.9% in comparison to the same period of last year.

Official statistics said that this growth is due to an increase of olive oil sales of 64.4% to 149.1 million Tunisian dinars and that the value of exports of some foodstuffs like vegetables and fruits made up 10.6% of Tunis' total exports in comparison to 7.8% during the same period of last year.
