Investments reported in totally exporting industries have decreased by 48.9% from 1,329.5 million Tunisian dinars (MTD) to 680 MTD during the first eight months in 2013, said the newsletter of the Agency for the Promotion of Industry and Innovation (APII).
This decline is mainly due to the agrifood sector whose reported investment decreased by 80.5% from 643.3 MTD to 125.2 MTD during the first eight months of 2013.
In contrast, industries whose production is oriented towards the domestic market grew by 38% from 1,312 MTD to 1,810.6 MTD during the same period.
