Morocco’s government on Thursday approved a decree expanding the Tangier Tech export processing zone, aiming to bolster industrial growth and attract foreign investment.
The decree, presented by Industry and Trade Minister Ryad Mezzour, extends the industrial acceleration zone to the municipalities of Laaouama and Sebt Zinat in the Tangier-Assilah prefecture, increasing its total area to 493.95 hectares, government spokesperson Mustapha Baitas said at a press briefing following the weekly cabinet meeting.
The Tangier Tech zone, launched to position Morocco as a key industrial and export hub, is part of the country’s broader strategy to enhance competitiveness and integrate global supply chains. The expansion is expected to draw international manufacturers and technology firms, leveraging the region’s proximity to Europe and Africa.
The government has been ramping up efforts to attract investment into export-oriented industries, with the Tangier Tech zone playing a central role in Morocco’s economic development agenda.
