Gabès, Administrative governorate in southeastern Tunisia.

Following Tunisia's independence from French rule in 1956, Gabès Governorate was established as one of the country's 24 administrative divisions.

The region maintains traditional marketplaces where local artisans sell handicrafts, including metalwork, woodwork, and textiles in the main municipalities.

The governorate contains ten delegations, ten municipalities, and 73 sectors, with the city of Gabès functioning as its administrative center.

The region houses 300,000 date palms and 103 industrial companies, combining agricultural heritage with modern economic development.
