Why Doing Business in Morocco? Morocco’s geographical position, touching both the Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines, has resulted in an amalgamation of cultures, languages and people, creating a culturally rich and multi-ethnic country. Since the onset of economic stability in the 1990s, Morocco has gradually become an emerging player in foreign trade exporting manufactured and agricultural products. Gradual modernisation initiated by the monarchy continues to improve many aspects of Moroccans’ lives. Today, Morocco is a major tourist destination, attracting people and businesses from all over the world.
