The 2024 U.S. Department of State report, released on July 17th, highlights Morocco’s significant strides in investment under the Visionary Leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI. Over the past 25 years, investment has been a cornerstone of Morocco’s socio-economic development.
🔹 Morocco is “actively encouraging and facilitating investment” through policies, trade liberalization, and robust support mechanisms, including the new investment charter and business climate reforms.
🔹 Morocco’s strategic location, political stability, and world-class infrastructure position Morocco as a “regional business hub” and “Gateway to Africa.”
🔹 Record-breaking FDI levels reflect Morocco’s positive momentum, with inflows for the first five months of 2024 reaching the second-highest in Morocco’s economic history.
At the confluence of Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the Middle East, Morocco seeks to transform itself into a regional business and industrial hub by leveraging its geographically strategic location, political stability, and world-class infrastructure to expand as a regional manufacturing and export base for international companies. Morocco actively encourages and facilitates foreign investment, particularly in export sectors like manufacturing, through positive macroeconomic policies, trade liberalization, investment incentives, and structural reforms. The Government of Morocco implements strategies aimed at boosting employment, attracting foreign investment, and raising performance and output, designating renewables, automotive, aeronautics, textiles, pharmaceuticals, outsourcing, and agro-industry as key industries. Morocco’s new Investment Charter, adopted in December 2022, significantly expands incentives for foreign investment.
According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development’s (UNCTAD) World Investment Report 2023, Morocco attracted the fifth-most foreign direct investment (FDI) in Africa in 2022. Inbound FDI decreased by 6 percent in 2022 to $2.1 billion, vice $2.2 billion in 2021, falling from a 2018 peak of $3.6 billion. In 2021, the latest year for which host country data is available, France (31 percent), the United Arab Emirates (21 percent), and Spain (eight percent) continued to hold the largest shares of FDI stocks, with the United States at five percent. Manufacturing attracted the highest share of FDI stocks (23.6 percent), followed by real estate (18.8 percent), telecommunications (12.1 percent), tourism, and energy and mines (6.3 percent) in 2021.
Morocco continues to market itself as the “gateway to Africa” through its return to the African Union in January 2017 and by joining the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) upon its launch in 2021. In June 2019, Morocco opened an extension of the Tangier-Med commercial shipping port, making it the largest port in Africa and the Mediterranean; the government is developing a third phase for the port which will increase capacity from nine to ten million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs). Tangier is connected to Morocco’s political capital in Rabat and commercial hub in Casablanca by Africa’s first high-speed train service.
However, inefficient government bureaucracy, corruption, and the slow pace of regulatory reform remain challenges. In addition to these structural issues, the government of Morocco lacks an investment screening process for critical industries such as telecommunications, critical minerals and rare earths, and renewable energy.
Morocco continues to make major investments in renewable energy and is on track to meet its goal of 52 percent of total installed capacity by 2030. The New Development Model, an overarching plan for economic reform released in April 2021, lays out the country’s ambition to increase the share of renewable energy in total energy consumption from 19.5 percent in 2021 to 40 percent by 2035. Opportunities for green investment include smart grids, green hydrogen, energy storage, and renewable energy. In 2023, Morocco recorded over $10 billion in announced investments to build an integrated battery manufacturing and electric vehicle production chain. In March 2024, Morocco announced it would allocate one million hectares of land to green hydrogen production and designated the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Development as responsible for facilitating investment in this sector.
In February 2023, Morocco was removed from the Financial Action Task Force’s (FATF) “grey list” of countries subjected to increased monitoring due to deficiencies in anti-money laundering and terrorist financing compliance following a series of reforms to strengthen its anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing legislation, regulations, and criminal penalties. In May 2023, the European Commission removed Morocco from the European Union’s anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing “grey list.”
As of 2024, Morocco has ratified 72 investment treaties to promote and protect investments and 62 economic agreements, including with the United States and most EU nations, that aim to eliminate the double taxation of income or gains. Morocco is the only 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. The Government of Morocco plans to phase out tariffs for some additional products through 2030. The FTA supports Morocco’s goals to develop as a regional financial and trade hub, providing opportunities for the localization of services and the finishing and re-export of goods to markets in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Since the U.S.-Morocco FTA came into effect bilateral trade in goods has grown nearly five-fold. 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.

Tout le plaisir est pour ma definition des rapport humains et de la joie comme mon prénom l’indique de vous offrir un tel raccourci autour du Monde des Affaires et des Cultures Humaines Régionales, qui n’est en fait que le bout de l’Atlas – The Peak of the Atlas Mountain – the Place of the Birth of my Own Ancestors. The best is still to come.
Mon écrit ci-dessous est un témoignage professionnel “personnalisé” véhiculant une dedication multiplicatrice s’adaptant à la variété des références opérationnelles et répondant à la diversité des opportunités et de l’environnement humain dans lequel s’est traduit et s’est imbibé des conditions locales des affaires [Business] et les pratiques régionales et nationales de la culture relationnelle prédominante.
Ainsi, mes rôles et fonctions d’office étaient plus et s’englobaient davantage de la seule et simple profession honorable d’un acteur ou de metteur en scène mais embrassent des allures réalistes et surréalistes de portée globale tout en s’identifiant dans le panorama des étendues d’affaires territoriales de la Californie et des Etats Unis d’Amérique – Designed in California and Made in USA and presented by Said Cherkaoui Ph.D..
Alors que la scène et la trame internationales sur laquelle je continues jusqu’à ce jour mes mises en scéne et performances demeurent directes, spontanées, dérivées et conduites par mon profond désir d’étaler des fondations de rapprochement et des ponts de communications entre les contrées lointaines, les entités voisines et les organisations distantes ainsi que les individus de divers horizons similaires et non identiques.
I contributed lot to the San Francisco World Trade Center and the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce et cela pour des decennies tant a San Francisco qu’a Oakland en Californie, avec mon travail et mes réalisations sur le plan international durant la période ou j’ai été dans le CITD et que depuis lors je continues a voguer par dela les horizons du Pacifique et autres rivages en ce temps proche dans la conjugaison et distant dans l’expression.
Pour conclure en beauté et joindre l’utile a l’agréable, je vais ajouter plus de sel ou d’épices à mes recettes internationales mijotées en Anglais mais façonnées a la Jacques (sans aucun) Pépin et Paul Bocuse (pas du Vaucluse) et oû vous pouvez aussi goûter la saveur du Sénégal (Rahma wa Ghofrane} comme des autres régions du reste de l’Afrique et cela selon votre choix en premier a travers et dans le contenu de ce lien qui pourra aussi vous donner plus d’appétit pour la lecture de mes autres publications adjacentes, correspondantes et complémentaires dans la mise en scène d’une mémoire constructive et d’un présent rénovateur pour des solutions intelligentes adaptables aux défis et courantes, aux exigences prospectives et aux risques potentiels, tel est le destin de mon labeur et de mon apport dans cette destinée commune d’existence.
N’hésitez pas de partager avec moi vos impressions, remarques, initiatives et opportunités de collaboration transatlantique comme transafricaine.

1993-1994 – Event for the Promotion of Export and International Trade Between Californiaand the Rest of the World that have Shaped my Memories and Destiny
In California, it All Started in 1993 at the East Bay Small Business Development Center, at Green Breurner’s Building, the Former Largest Department Furniture Store at the 7th Floor with Ms. Selma Taylor as the Executive Director and Dr. Said El Mansour Cherkaoui as the Business Consultant
Historical landmark columnist Annalee Allen called the Breuner Building “an eight-story reinforced concrete building with a distinctive variegated sea-green glazed terra cotta front facade, constructed in 1931 to house the John Breuner Furniture Company store. Other noteworthy features of the building include Art Deco motifs, and a pair of stylized figures crafting a chair located over the front entrance.”
The Oakland store was closed in the 1970’s and sold by the company where, following renovation, the historic building reopened as an office building in the late 1970’s.
The California Genealogical Society moved into the former Breuner Building in March 2007. As of 2012, the appearance of Ikea furniture, large yoga balls for sitting, and a flyer on the door indicating an entrance on the side heralded the move-in of a startup on the ground floor of the building – Spark Art.

This writing finds its raison d’être in the spirit and the will to advance and share the reflection and the visions concerning authentic development and national integration in a perspective of shared responsibility with our Saharan Provinces.
Our southern regions must be projected on the vision of Morocco Today as the roots of Morocco at the historical level and as seeds for the realization of the culture of territorial and national integrity as well as the pillars and feet of the Moroccan body for its march on the path of final reunification and its steps toward the achievement of social progress, leading to the construction of regional economic development.
This achievement of economic competitiveness is another crossing destination leading to the establishment of its local structures favorable to a national self-sufficiency coupled and reinforced by the sustainability of operational efficiency and the consolidation of innovative and high value-added local productions and highly competitive offerings in the international market.

Le Maroc dessine sa vision d’un “nouveau modèle de développement”
La commission mandatée par le roi Mohammed VI, pour répondre “à la crise de confiance” révélée par les émeutes du Rif de 2017, vient de rendre sa copie. A special commission appointed by the King of Mohammed VI after the Hirak du Rif presented several avenues for reform after a long reflection that involved all the components of Moroccan society. Read more details atMorocco outlines its vision of a “new development model
Economic inclusion, social protection, “effective education”, “quality” health service, “tax fairness”, “efficient and honest justice”, and “strengthening of individual and public freedoms”, Morocco is looking for a new development model, to be able to respond to the “crisis of confidence” of the population vis-à-vis its institutions.
Through the reading of this introduction and the existing narration in this video, we find no trace of what Dakhla or the other urban centers can acquire as direct responsibility in the establishment and the conduct as well as the realization of a strategy. of multipolar development not only inclusive of the regions but above all based on the anchoring of economic development policies having as content and as a goal:
Polycentric “Metropolization” of Spatial Planning and Synchronization of Regional Productive Units for Homogenized National Development
The Development Model submitted to the King of Morocco failed to mention what I am proposing below:
Establishment of several centers in a dependent territory from a single or dominant center– Dakhla should be transformed into a polycentric metropolis of the Moroccan Sahara coupled with a Hub for services between European capitals and the capitals of African countries.
This regional approach would be a conduit for Moroccan spatial planning based on the notion of institutional unity in regional, economic, and social diversity, coupled with a complementarity of productive and operational para-national synergy.
Dakhla would therefore be a hub of correspondence and transfer as an air and sea link as well as rail, thus creating an integrated logistics modal infrastructure with modes of transport and delivery of people and goods, thus consolidating the links between territorial integrity national and territorial integration of Morocco in trade flows between the major centers of the continents of Europe and Africa. This approach is based almost on density: this is the case with standardized centrality indices which can be broken down at several scales – local or global – and by sector of activity (Guérois, Le Goix 2000; Huriot & al. 2003).
Cet écrit trouve sa raison d’être dans l’esprit et la volonté de faire avancer et partager la réflexion et les visions concernant le développement authentique et l’intégration nationale dans une perspective de responsabilité partagée avec nos provinces sahariennes et pas seulement comme une inclusion régionaliste désintégrée.

The coastline in the development of Morocco and its Atlantic policy
Le littoral dans le développement du Maroc et de sa politique atlantique
Morocco has been making significant strides in developing its southern provinces and Dakhla as a new development cluster. Here are some key points:
Development of Southern Provinces and Dakhla:
Dakhla, located in the Dakhla-Oued Eddahab region of Morocco, is being developed as a major economic hub with a focus on several key industries:
The Moroccan government has launched the ‘Dakhla Atlantic Port’ project, a flagship megaproject operating within the development model for Morocco’s southern provinces.
The port is expected to support various sectors including fisheries, agriculture, mining, energy, tourism, trade, and industry.
Fishing: Dakhla has a rich fishing industry, and the development of the Dakhla Atlantic Port is expected to boost this sector further. The port has an industrial zone of 270 ha, of which 20% is developed for processing industries, storage areas, administrative areas, and a free export zone.
Tourism: The region’s unique geography and cultural heritage make it an attractive tourist destination.
Energy: Dakhla is at the forefront of Morocco’s green energy initiatives. TAQA Morocco, majority-owned by the Abu Dhabi National Energy Company, has announced plans to invest $27.2 billion in a green hydrogen project in the Dakhla-Oued El-Dahab region. The project will generate 6,000 MW of renewable energy, which will be used to produce and export green hydrogen to meet global demand for
The ‘Tiznit-Dakhla’ expressway project is also underway, which will promote new economic networks spanning from central Morocco to Dakhla.
The Moroccan government aims to turn the country’s southern provinces into an engine of development at the regional and continental levels.
Maritime Facade for Sub-Saharan Countries of the Sahel:
The Moroccan King’s Initiative aims to grant Sahel countries access to the Atlantic Ocean3. This initiative is seen as a strategic turning point for these countries.
The initiative aims to integrate the Sahel into global trade networks by utilizing Morocco’s road, port, and rail infrastructures.
Four landlocked countries in the Sahel have welcomed this initiative, which requires investments in infrastructure and a co-development approach.
These initiatives and projects demonstrate Morocco’s commitment to developing its southern provinces and Dakhla, serving as a maritime facade for the Sub-Saharan Countries of the Sahel, and building infrastructure to facilitate logistics and trade exchange. However, these are large-scale projects that require significant investment and time to fully realize. It’s also important to note that the success of these initiatives depends on various factors, including regional stability, international cooperation, and sustainable development practices.
Within Moroccan territory, Dakhla would also serve as a model for a hierarchy of intra-metropolitan centers and their respective relations with other centers in Europe and Africa.
It is such a centrality of Dakhla that could instill an industrialization process stimulating economic specialization and an employment / active population ratio favorable to the training and the attraction of qualified labor, thus being able to interweave and harmonize the implementation. place of niche markets for industrial growth through a synergy between the economic, financial, and cultural cogs operating in the other regions of Morocco. This interweaving would facilitate the establishment of a platform endowed with interchangeable infrastructures, operational units, and complementary niches in the polycentric sense.
To avoid the emergence of “single-center” poles and the growth of single-center activities, regional and interregional cohesion would be guided by motivation and an approach favoring innovation, Research and Development, and effective job creation. productive preferably centered on Engineering and mechanical engineering and industrial sectors that can reduce Morocco’s dependence on the import of more efficient and innovative devices, machines, tools, and equipment necessary to the productive operations of factories, industries, and advanced technological productions.
Morocco should thus have the capacity to define and shape as well as produce according to its development needs all the equipment necessary for the materialization of the intermediate stages of its industrial progress.
A synchronized distribution between the areas of influence at the productive level and in the promotion of the region as an essential cog in the functioning, the productivity, and the renewal of the necessary conditions and resources that can stimulate the growth of poles of economic specialization responding to the challenges countries, the construction of the free trade area in Africa and international competitiveness.

A series of articles and analyses on the continual globalization of the automotive industry which is tested by internal and multipolar competition as well as international imposing is looking not only for new outlets but above all for new production methods, new locations, and other supplies and a dowser by equipment manufacturers. This new composition of the automobile industry was and continues to be guided by the realization of productions relatively less expensive and more competitive than the international scale.
Thus globalization and the integration of advanced robotic production techniques have allowed the relocation of car manufacturing companies without having to adapt to the cultural environment the local operational conditions or even the degree of development of the place, region, and country where the car producers settled.
The profit margin achieved is increased by the reduction of wage costs, the rolling of the rights and social benefits given to the workers are supplemented by favors and facilities granted by the host country which play the role of magnet of attraction for the automobile manufacturers.
The second challenge is internal and specific to the emergence of electric cars which have managed to establish themselves as a serious alternative to traditional models using gasoline or diesel as fuel. Thus, the global automotive industry is currently distinguished by an international and national strategy characterized by change and continuity
Executive Briefing: This article presents the drive of Renault from the edge of bankruptcy to the rise of its model Logan to international prominence, fame and success. At the same time, Renault concentrated its production in countries that have been considered by the major car manufacturers as solely a marketplace and not the location of their production. Cette résurrection de Renault coïncida avec une rupture dans la volonté des décideurs nationaux des pays d’accueil de conduire leurs économies dans la voie du développement généralisé national. Dorénavant, le libéralisme idéologique et sa traduction opérationnelle sous forme du Développement Durable privilégient et accordent la primauté a des politiques conjoncturelles basées sur l’attractivité et l’implantation des créneaux industriels et a des productions sectorielles complémentaires pour la stimulation de la création de l’emploi, l’attrait des producteurs des composants mécaniques et la stimulation des exportations.

Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker Nio has unveiled the first car from its new lower-priced brand Onvo, in a direct challenge to Tesla’s best-selling car. May 15, 2024
Beyond Dream – BYD
Formerly written off by Elon Musk, the Chinese BYD proved its detractors wrong by becoming the world’s leading seller of electric vehicles in July 2022, after having sold 641,000 vehicles in the first half of 2022, almost 80,000 more electric vehicles than Tesla .
Atto 3
Dolphin

Seal
Sealion 6
T3
On Monday, July 1, 2024, BYD reported EV sales of 426,000. That is 21% more than a year ago, as BYD continues to close the gap on Tesla. In the fourth quarter, BYD briefly passed Tesla in global EV sales.
Although it has gained a strong foothold in the electric vehicle market, BYD began life as a rechargeable battery manufacturer in 1995 and in 2021 built a new factory in Chongqing, China to produce its blade batteries, which are thinner and longer than conventional lithium batteries ion cells.
Blade batteries are also considered the safest EV batteries because they are much less likely to catch fire in the event of an accident. They are also 50% smaller than other battery packs, resulting in lighter, more efficient electric vehicles.
There appear to be no hard feelings between the Chinese giant and Elon Musk: BYD Executive Vice President Lian Yubo now claims that BYD is “good friends” with Mr. Tesla and plans to supply his company batteries for electric vehicles.
Tesla finally unveiled its Robotaxi and larger Robovan at an event Thursday [10/10/24] night, following several years of hype and delays. CEO Elon Musk said the car — with no pedals or steering wheel — would be able to drive itself without supervision. He offered “no details” about where the Cybercab would be made, but said customers will be able to buy it — hopefully before 2027 — for under $30,000. While Musk expects it to rake in trillions, some experts doubt the cars will hit the roads anytime soon, pointing to previous delays. Investors, meanwhile, showed some disappointment around the lack of details.
Tesla’s tactic of pruning back prices this year is beginning to bear fruit. The electric vehicle maker enjoyed a five percent sales increase in the first quarter and delivered a record 422,875 vehicles, which was just below Wall Street’s estimates. The company has addressed the long waits — typically driven by limited production capabilities — that have often marked the buying experience by ramping up outputs at plants in Austin, Texas, and in Germany. Still, some analysts are concerned about whether Tesla can maintain its growth without further price cuts.
Tesla’s first-quarter deliveries represent a 36% increase compared to the same period last year and 4% more than its previous quarter. Its previous delivery record was roughly 405,000 cars in one quarter.
Tesla recently issued a recall for 35 of its electric Semis over a faulty parking brake.
The company is also facing a probe from the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration over malfunctioning seat belts.
