A German-owned footwear factory in Kairouan in northern Tunisia will create more than 3,000 jobs in the city, local media have reported.

After a recent visit by Tunisia’s industry minister, Mohamed Lamine Chakhari, the government has given assurances that it will improve water supply to the facility. The owners complained that a lack of water was causing production delays at the plant.
