More specifically, we worked together to create a plan for expanding the business, with a view to setting ourselves apart from the competition by offering new tools and an excellent after-sales service. The new facility we are inaugurating today represents the culmination of this expansion plan. Our customers will be able to benefit from the highest levels of IVECO service in the Sahel region and especially in M'saken, which is located on a strategic crossroads between the north, south and west of the country."
Owner and manager of Bassem Auto Services, Sami Zahouani, added, "We decided to make such a significant investment today because we believe that Tunisia is capable of overcoming all the economic and health-related challenges that we currently face. In addition, we have full confidence in the extraordinary engineering that lies at the heart of all IVECO products. It is our view that financial investment in commercial vehicles and transport, which are at the heart of productive economic activity, is set to continue.”
