According to sources close to the matter, the operation will be worth between 100m and 120m Tunisian dinars (€30m-€36m) for Universal Auto Distributors Holding (UADH), the entity that oversees all Loukil Investment Group activities in the automotive industry. This increase will be made with a foreign investor whose name has not been disclosed, with a stake not exceeding 20%, in line with current regulations. But a source within the management team tells Jeune Afrique Business+ that local investors will also be included in the firm’s financing round “by invitation”.
