Tunisia’s food trade balance recorded a surplus of 943.4 million dinars by the end of May 2026, compared with 745.7 million dinars during the same period in 2025, reaching a coverage rate of 127.1%.
According to data published Friday by the National Observatory of Agriculture, the improvement was driven by exports rising at a faster pace than imports.
Tunisian exports increased from 3.65 billion dinars during the first five months of 2025 to 4.43 billion dinars by the end of May 2026.
Imports also rose, reaching 3.48 billion dinars compared with 2.9 billion dinars during the same period last year.
