The American Cafe Trade Show in Casablanca, named after the iconic movie “Casablanca”, is indeed a significant event. It serves as a platform to showcase American food and agricultural products to Moroccan importers and buyers 1. This trade show plays a crucial role in promoting trade relations between the U.S. and Morocco1.

Dr. Said El Mansour Cherkaoui, along with His Excellency Mr. Arthur Riley, the U.S. Ambassador in Morocco, were present at this trade show in 2004 12. Dr. Cherkaoui represented 25 U.S. Food Companies at the event 1 2.

This event was a significant step in promoting trade relations between the U.S. and Morocco and was organized for the objective to facilitate the negotiation and the signing of the Free Trade Agreement between Morocco and the United States.

The U.S.-Morocco trade relations have a long history and have grown significantly over the years. Here are some key points:

Historical Relations: Morocco was one of the first countries to recognize the newly independent United States, opening its ports to American ships by decree of Sultan Mohammed III in 1777 1. Morocco formally recognized the United States by signing a treaty of peace and friendship in 1786, a document that remains the longest unbroken relationship in U.S. history1.

Free Trade Agreement (FTA): Morocco is the only country on the African continent with a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with the United States, eliminating tariffs on more than 95 percent of qualifying consumer and industrial goods 2The Government of Morocco plans to phase out tariffs for some products through 2030 2.

Trade Growth:

Since the U.S.-Morocco FTA came into effect, bilateral trade in goods has grown nearly five-fold 3. The U.S. and Moroccan governments work closely to increase trade and investment through high-level consultations, bilateral dialogue, and other forums to inform U.S. businesses of investment opportunities and strengthen business-to-business ties 3.

U.S. Exports to Morocco: U.S. goods exports to Morocco in 2022 were $3.7 billion, up 33.3 percent ($928 million) from 2021 and up 71 percent from 20124.

U.S. Imports from Morocco: U.S. goods imports from Morocco in 2022 were $2.3 billion4.

Trade Surplus: The U.S. goods and services trade surplus with Morocco was $2.1 billion in 2022 4.

These points highlight the strong and growing trade relationship between the U.S. and Morocco.
