Expertise France reported on Sunday that a workshop on free zones was held in Tunis last week (August 16-18, 2023) for the Libyan (Tripoli) Ministry of Economy and Trade’s team working on its Free Zone Strategy. The team was headed by Nouri al-Gattati, Deputy Minister of Economy and Trade for Free Zones.
The workshop comes within the framework of the technical support provided by the E-NABLE project, implemented by Expertise France and funded by the European Union for a sustainable and resilient Libyan economy.
The workshop aimed to follow up on the mechanisms for developing a comprehensive national strategy for free zones to expand trade, improve the investment climate, and support economic growth and diversification in Libya.
The workshop covered all aspects of the comprehensive national strategy for free trade zones and transit trade in Libya and the priority free zones for the Ministry of Economy and Trade.
Some best practices from international experiences were also presented, including Tangier Automotive City, a free zone dedicated to automobile manufacturing in Tangier, Morocco. During the workshop, participants worked to design a pilot model for free zones in Libya and investigate the local and regional constraints related to it.
