Morocco is establishing itself as an important platform for Portuguese entrepreneurs wishing to establish themselves in Africa, affirmed João Rui Ferreira, Secretary of State for Economy of Portugal, during an economic meeting in Rabat. Thanks to its strategic location and its links with the African Union and the French-speaking world, the Kingdom offers Portuguese companies privileged access to African markets.
The meeting, themed “Portugal-Morocco: Shaping the future together,” highlighted opportunities for collaboration in key sectors such as energy, logistics and skills development. Moroccan Industry and Trade Minister Ryad Mezzour stressed that the joint organization of the 2030 World Cup with Portugal and Spain will be an important catalyst for strengthening bilateral economic relations.
Portuguese companies are showing growing interest in the Moroccan market, attracted by the kingdom’s competitiveness and its potential for industrial integration. This dynamic should lead to an increase in investments and joint projects, particularly in the areas of infrastructure, mobility and telecommunications.
Launched by the Portuguese Investment and Foreign Trade Agency (AICEP) in collaboration with the CGEM and the Portuguese Business Confederation (CIP), this day of exchange allowed economic actors from both countries to explore new avenues of collaboration through sectoral panels and B2B meetings.
