Director of the Arab Industrial Development and Mining Organization (AIDMO), Adil Sakr Al-Sakr, highlighted Morocco’s industrial development during a meeting on Thursday evening with the country’s Industry and Trade Minister, Ryad Mezzour.
Morocco’s industrial sector had specially developed over the pandemic, Al-Sakr said at the Rabat meeting.
In a press release from AIDMOn, Al-Sakr praised the five Moroccan industrial facilities that won the Arab award for quality in March.
Back in March, AIDMO had awarded five Moroccan industrial facilities the prize of best quality in a ceremony in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, according to a report from Morocco’s press agency (MAP).
The award was an acknowledgment of Morocco’s leadership in certain industrial sectors, Al-Sakr explained.
During his meeting with the Moroccan minister, the two officials deliberated on issues of interest to Morocco and the Arab organization, AIDMO’s press release added.
Al-Sakr equally presented Mezzour with the new platform from the Arab organization APIP.online for industrial and mining products in Arab countries.
The platform was launched in January during a meeting in Riyadh in the presence of mining and industry ministers from across the Arab world, the press release indicates.
Speaking on the relevance of the platform, Al-Sakr said that it aims to bring the organization up to date with the international digital transformation.
The platform will serve as a channel linking suppliers with clients and open dialogue between producers to boost the Arab industrial and mining sector, AIDMO’s press release concluded.
Morocco's industrial sector has been rapidly growing over the past two decades due to a number of government plans.
The country’s 2014-2020 Industrial Acceleration Plan 2014-2020 has generated 110,000 industrial jobs between 2008 and 2011, and increased Moroccan exports by 22%.
Since the start of the implementation of the plan in 2009, foreign direct investments have been steadily increasing by an annual rate of 23%. Read More...
