The Tripoli Chamber of Commerce recently hosted a high-level B2B meeting aimed at strengthening economic ties between Libya and Tunisia, with a particular focus on the construction and contracting sectors. Held at the Chamber’s headquarters, the event brought together representatives from the Tripoli Chamber and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Sfax, Tunisia, reinforcing a long-standing partnership rooted in regional cooperation and shared development goals. The gathering served as a platform for direct engagement between Libyan and Tunisian companies, fostering dialogue around joint ventures, infrastructure projects, and investment opportunities in public works and civil engineering.
This initiative reflects a broader momentum toward regional integration, as both nations seek to capitalize on post-conflict reconstruction and urban development. Tunisian firms, including manufacturers of building materials, architects, and engineering consultants, presented their expertise and services to Libyan counterparts eager to rebuild and modernize key infrastructure. The meeting also aligned with Tunisia’s export promotion strategy, which has seen a notable 37% increase in exports to Libya over the past four years, particularly in sectors such as metals, construction materials, and industrial equipment.
By facilitating direct business connections, the Tripoli Chamber is playing a strategic role in revitalizing Libya’s economy and positioning Tunisian enterprises as key partners in the country’s rebuilding efforts. The event underscored the importance of economic diplomacy and private sector collaboration in driving sustainable growth across North Africa. As Libya continues to emerge from years of instability, such cross-border initiatives offer a blueprint for regional resilience, innovation, and shared prosperity.
