OEE benchmark Tunisia 2026: manufacturing data, sector targets and downtime cost
Official manufacturing statistics for Tunisia, the OEE ranges that apply to its leading sectors, a downtime-cost calculator preloaded with national labour and energy costs, and the incentives that can fund a monitoring project.
Key figures
Leading sectors and the OEE ranges that apply
The first columns are Tunisia's own sector mix (Institut National de la Statistique (INS)). The OEE columns are the oee-benchmark.org editorial ranges for that sector type: they are benchmarks for plants, not national statistics.
| Sector | Weight | Typical OEE | World-class target | Dominant loss | A × P × Q |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Textile & habillement (ITH) | 1,275 entreprises / 143,617 emplois (27.2% de l'emploi industriel) (2026) | 40–60% | 73% | Reduced speed & quality | 82% × 86% × 95% |
| Industries électriques & électroniques (IEE – câblage auto: Leoni, Yazaki) | 336 entreprises / 118,922 emplois (22.6%), 111,159 en totalement exportatrices (2026) | 75–90% | 88% | Reduced speed & defects | 93% × 96% × 99% |
| Agroalimentaire (IAA) | 980 entreprises / 77,565 emplois (14.7%) (2026) | 60–80% | 82% | Changeover & startup losses | 90% × 93% × 98% |
| Industries mécaniques & métallurgiques (IMM) | 561 entreprises / 48,784 emplois (9.3%) (2026) | 45–65% | 78% | Setup & idling | 85% × 88% × 96% |
Downtime cost calculator: Tunisia defaults

Funding and incentives for monitoring projects (status October 2026)

Frequently asked questions
What is a good OEE in Tunisia?
There is no national OEE statistic: OEE is measured per line, and the useful comparison is by sector. For Tunisia's leading sectors the typical range is 40–90% and the world-class targets are listed above. Most plants that start measuring sit near 60%.
Where do these figures come from?
Manufacturing weight, employment, labour cost, energy price and robot density come from official statistics (Institut National de la Statistique (INS), Eurostat, the World Bank and the IFR); every figure links to the page it was read from. The OEE ranges are oee-benchmark.org editorial benchmarks.
What is in the Tunisia benchmark pack?
An Excel workbook with the country profile and sources, the hub table, the sector OEE ranges, a downtime-cost calculator with the national defaults already filled in, and the incentives and events lists. It is free; we ask for a work email.
