Tunisia, situated in North Africa, boasts a strong economy and well-developed infrastructure, alongside abundant resources. Key cities and ports include Tunis-Goulette, Bizerte, Bourguiba, Sfax, Gabes, Sousse, Zarzis, Radès, and Skhira Port. These ports play crucial roles both geographically and in facilitating import and export activities.
