Business Mission to Morocco

Morocco, marked by its constitutional monarchy which makes it a rare example of stability in the region, is a country that is opening itself up to the world, which results in a very dynamic and fast-growing economy.

With a significantly growing market economy, marked by a serious effort towards liberalization and external openness, it has been possible to keep a low level of inflation and reduce unemployment, although much remains to accomplish in the latter, mainly concerning young people. Exports have been growing very satisfactorily, with the contribution of trade agreements signed with the US and Europe.

As a result of the modernization of its economy and of its privileged strategic position, Morocco is being increasingly regarded as a regional hub in the field of naval logistics and maintenance. The port of Tangiers and its associated free trade zone also represent an additional factor for the attractiveness of its economy.

Regarding business opportunities with Morocco, the construction and public works sector comes first, since the renewal of the country’s infrastructure is considered one of Morocco’s priorities. Tourism also has great potential in a country which has been able to preserve its stability, in a region which has suffered a great deal of social and political unrest. Renewable energies is another interesting sector, where Portugal already boasts considerable experience, namely its solar and wind modalities, in which Moroccans want to invest in order to balance their heavy dependence on imported energy sources. Other sectors where partnerships between Portuguese and Moroccan companies could be established are the car industry and textiles.
