Global food processing and packaging solutions provider, tna solutions, has named Magdy El Dessouky (pictured) as its new general manager for North Africa. 

With more than 21 years’ experience in customer service and business development, El Dessouky will assume responsibility for on-the-ground customer services and technical support for Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia.

This latest move forms part of a wider initiative to bolster tna’s ongoing commitment to support its customers across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) territories.

Since first joining tna in 2016 as General Manager for Australia, El Dessouky has held various key positions across Europe, the Middle East, the US, Africa and Australia, developing valuable experience along the way. In his new role, he will assist customers based in North Africa – helping them to optimize their packaging and processing solutions with the latest innovations tna has to offer.

“Magdy’s appointment will lend further support to tna’s efforts to support the food manufacturing sector across the region,” said Mukul Shukla, General Manager-MENA at tna. “North Africa has shown great potential in embracing new technologies and is now ripe to establish more innovative enterprises. tna’s expansion here is just one example of how our strong trade and investment ties continue to grow, creating even more opportunities for our customers now – and in the future.”
