Two contracts were signed Wednesday between the Tunisian Mrabeti group, operating in industry and tourism, and Czech businessmen. The ceremony was presided over by Mr. Vaclav Klaus, President of the Czech Republic.
The first agreement concerns the creation of a flat glass factory, the first of its kind in Africa, with an investment of 150 million euros (270 million dinars). Czech participation will be 20%, and they will also contribute their technological expertise.
This project, which will begin in November 2009, should create 1000 jobs, including 500 managerial positions. The second agreement concerns the creation of a "Sea World" hotel and real estate complex on 20 hectares in Hammamet, for an investment of 120 million euros (216 million dinars). Czech partners will provide technical and financial assistance.
The Czech president stressed the importance of these projects in developing bilateral relations, wishing them every success.
On this occasion, the CEO of the MRABETI Group, Mr. Faouzi Mrabeti, advocated for direct contact between Tunisian and Czech industrialists. He noted that currently Tunisian goods are exported to the Czech Republic via France, while Czech goods are purchased by Tunisian industrialists in other European countries, such as Germany.
