Morocco imports record 66,000 of tons amounts of nuts and dried fruit
Morocco has seen a remarkable surge in its importation of nuts and dried fruits, with a 12% increase in the first ten months of 2023 compared to the previous year. This increase reflects changing dietary preferences, the globalization of food culture, and government initiatives to support the sector. The rise in imports is driven by the growing demand for healthier and more diverse food options among Moroccans, as well as the influence of international cuisines. The government’s efforts to enhance agricultural productivity and improve infrastructure have created a favorable environment for the import and consumption of these products. However, maintaining product quality and sustainability are key challenges for the industry. Overall, the record importation of nuts and dried fruits in Morocco indicates a shift towards healthier dietary choices and a growing market for these products. Morocco is well-positioned to strengthen its position in the global food industry while catering to the evolving tastes and health needs of its population.
