The international expansion strategy that the Alonso Group is carrying out in recent months has reached a new milestone with the recent opening of its subsidiary in North Africa,”Alonso Forwarding Tunis. This new office, located in Tunisia, is the first step in the expansion of the group’s activities on the African continent.

“Alonso Forwarding Tunis” has as one of its main challenges to establish a pioneering product of consolidated export from Tunisia to all Africa through a hub in Spain. To this end, Alonso Group’s new subsidiary has incorporated a team of professionals with extensive and recognized experience in the Tunisian logistics sector, as well as important contacts in neighbouring countries such as Libya and Algeria.

Thus, one of the medium-term objectives of “Alonso Forwarding Tunis” is to become a global forwarder with the ability to manage worldwide shipments. Its excellent geographical location and the importance of the existing traffic in Tunisia to countries such as China, India, Turkey, France, Italy and Spain, make this country the ideal location to centralize forwarding operations from the central Mediterranean to any point of the planet.

An orderly and competitive growth

One of Alonso Group’s objectives at an international level is to achieve constant growth, strengthening the current network in a coordinated manner. In this way, the customers and suppliers of the group’s forwarding agents can take advantage of the benefits of having a solid, powerful international structure based on collaboration that translates into an extra efficiency, effectiveness and profitability to cover their needs.

In this sense, the president of Grupo Alonso, Jorge Alonso, points out that “we are working to achieve coordinated action throughout the logistics chain at a national and international level, through the involvement and collaboration of all actors in order to achieve common economic and environmental objectives”. This commitment to differentiation translates into greater specialisation and professionalisation of logistics activity, as well as much more personalised treatment of the final customer.
