Morocco: Food Service - Hotel Restaurant Institutional

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   MO2022-0023

Morocco’s hotel, restaurant, and institutional industry (HRI) started to recover in 2022, reflecting an increase in tourism arrivals as COVID-19 travel restrictions ease. According to Ministry of Tourism reports, Morocco received 3.4 million foreign visitors at the end of the first half of 2022, a 300 percent year-on-year increase (compared to a 57 percent decline in 2021). Implementation of the U.S.-Morocco Free Trade Agreement (FTA) resulted in the continued phase-out of many tariffs for consumer-oriented products.
