Ecommerce in Tunisia
The coronavirus epidemic is putting the Tunisian government to the test in terms of its ability to build eCommerce as a permanent system. The government needs to support daily services and as well as transactions, rather than just as a temporary solution to the health problem.
Tunisia, with a population of 11.7 million people, is a tiny eCommerce market in Tunisia and Africa as a whole. Tunisia's eCommerce services are mostly limited to the local market, with a concentration in Tunisia and other major cities.
While there has been a revival of electronic services since the outbreak of the pandemic, the sector still faces many challenges due to people's and the government's dislike of digital technology.
The COVID-19 pandemic, as well as similar social distancing measures, boosted the demand for online shopping websites like Founa, Lemarché, and Jumia. To fulfil demand, smaller local shops forged new associations as they tried to keep up with client demand.
