About TOM
TOM is one of the oldest biscuit manufacturers in Tunisia, established in 1949 and part of IFFCO since 2007. It sells sandwich, dry and coated biscuits, cakes, cream-filled layer cakes and wafers, and its flagship product is Chocotom. It is a reminder that IFFCO grew across North Africa and the Gulf by buying local names rather than by exporting a single one.
