Abstract
AbstractThis paper examines the location patterns of manufacturing industries within the most developed regions of Tunisia, the Sahel. We use detailed micro‐geographic data and the distance‐based approach of Duranton and Overman. While the textile industry shows a high degree of geographical concentration, the high‐tech industries are also among the most concentrated, meaning that the Tunisian Sahel gathers a specialised pool in these industries. We further analyse the location patterns of manufacturing sub‐sectors: totally and partially exporting plants and domestic, mixed and foreign plants and show that totally exporting plants and foreign and mixed plants exhibit strong geographical concentration.
