🇹🇳 Export Markets
Tunisia
Strong demand for Egyptian chickpeas, fava beans and lentils across Tunisian wholesale and foodservice channels.
Why Tunisia Buys Egyptian Pulses
Tunisia is a significant Mediterranean market for Egyptian pulses and spices. Tunisian cuisine features chickpeas prominently — in couscous, tajines, salads and the national dish lablabi. Harissa production and the broader Tunisian spice manufacturing sector create additional demand for Egyptian coriander seeds, cumin seeds and caraway seeds.
Tunisian buyers are typically food importers and spice manufacturers based in Tunis, Sfax and Sousse supplying domestic grocery retailers, food manufacturers and the hospitality sector. Proximity to Egypt via the Mediterranean makes Damietta one of the most competitive sourcing origins for Tunisian buyers.
Tunisian import regulations require: Phytosanitary Certificate, GOEIC Certificate of Origin, Certificate of Analysis and standard commercial documents. Halal certification is recommended for retail-packed goods and is available on request. Import procedures are handled through Tunisian Customs (Douane Tunisienne).
