The Tunisian-Kuwaiti Consortium of Development "CTKD" set to invest in CRM and IT services by partnering with AlmavivA Tunisie, the Tunisian-based AlmavivA Group subsidiary

The Tunisian-Kuwaiti Consortium of Development "CTKD", one of the leading Tunisian investment companies, founded about three decades ago as a joint venture between the Kuwaiti and the Tunisian Governments operating in a number of business sectors (tourism, food industries and real estate), has selected AlmavivA Tunisie to enter the services market.

AlmavivA Tunisie, the AlmavivA Group call center operation on the Tunisian market, and CTKD, in fact, have finalized an agreement whereby the latter will acquire a 35% stake in AlmavivA Tunisie, with a cash injection of about one million euros.

This partnership will pave the way for further development abroad, opening up new markets, locally and in the French-speaking countries, allowing AlmavivA Tunisie to export its know-how in both CRM services and the IT sector as a whole, in which AlmavivA Group boasts a 20-year long history in Italy and abroad (Brazil, Tunisia and China).

Gianfranco Previtera, Group Chief Sales Officer, said: "We expect a great deal of business opportunities from our company in Tunisia. The arrival of a new financially sound and internationally renowned shareholder will further increase its potential. Today, AlmavivA Tunisie, established in 2002, employs about 200 people, but is set to considerably increase its human resources in the short term, thanks to a series of strategic projects".

AlmavivA Tunisie offers CRM and IT services to important clients in the telecoms, transportation and services industries.
