Morocco is one of the further developed African countries, with an estimated population of around 37 million people, reflecting a blend of Arab, Berber, and African influences.
The Moroccan economy, with an absolute GDP per capita of approximately $3,400 USD as of 2023, is diverse and growing. The main economic drivers include agriculture, tourism, and manufacturing. Agriculture, particularly the cultivation of cereals, olives, and citrus fruits, plays a significant role in the rural economy. Tourism is also crucial, with Morocco’s historic cities, Mediterranean and Atlantic beaches, and mountain ranges attracting millions of visitors annually. Moreover, the manufacturing sector, especially textiles, automotive, and aerospace, is expanding rapidly, driven by foreign investment and government initiatives.
Morocco’s economy is also characterized by its import activities. The most imported products include crude petroleum, textile fabrics, telecommunications equipment, wheat, gas and electricity, and motor vehicles. These imports are essential for supporting its industrial activities and meeting consumer demands.
Key cities in Morocco include Casablanca, the economic and business hub of the country; Rabat, the political capital; Marrakech, known for its historic medina and vibrant tourism industry; Fes, famous for its ancient walled city; and Tangier, a strategic port city on the Strait of Gibraltar. Each city contributes uniquely to Morocco’s cultural and economic landscape, making it a diverse and dynamic country.
