Key Market Indicators
Tunisian newspaper imports in 2023 plummeted to approximately $129,000, marking a dramatic decline of nearly 69% compared to the previous year's figure of $412,000. This steep drop reflects a broader trend observed since 1996, with the country's demand for newspapers consistently falling at an average annual rate of 39.6%. On the export front, the situation has been similarly bleak. In 2017, Tunisia's newspaper exports were valued at roughly $15,000, down 53% from the $32,000 recorded in 2016. This decline is part of a long-term downward trend, with the nation's newspaper supply decreasing by an average of 31.6% each year since 1996.
