Tunis: A partnership agreement was just inked between the Tunisia Africa Business Council (TABC) and the Netherlands-Africa Business Council (NABC) aimed at scaling up triangular cooperation between Tunisia, the Netherlands and Africa. The agreement was signed on June 26 at the Dutch Embassy in Tunis by TABC President Anis Jaziri and NABC President Mattijs Renden, in the presence of Dutch Ambassador to Tunisia Josephine Frantzen. The agreement aims to tap into opportunities for cooperation between Tunisian economic operators and their Dutch counterparts, and to step up bilateral trade, according to a TABC press release issued on Friday. The agreement also intends to promote Tunisia to Dutch investors as a platform for Africa, making the most of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) agreements. Under the terms of the agreement, the parties agreed to work closely together and to help each other in fields such as investment incentives and trade, and to explore new avenues of collaboration together, notably on the occasion of the forthcoming FITA2025 international conference.
