New Economic Zone in Tetouan to Boost Industry and Combat Smuggling

Concretely, the project will create job opportunities for young people in the region looking for premises to start their activities, while strengthening the supply of infrastructure to facilitate the attractiveness of private investors, reports L’Économiste.

The future zone will strengthen the economic and industrial infrastructure of the province of Tetouan, which are currently insufficient, the newspaper points out, specifying that the region already has three economic zones. That of Martil, that of Tetouan Park which entered service in 2018 and finally the activity zone of Fnideq, the latest to have been launched.

The latter, which entered service last February, makes it possible to ensure the import in a duty-free regime of food products, cosmetics, or others, before their customs clearance and their marketing on the Moroccan territory.
