Morocco’s Exports to China Surge 9.4% in 2022, Led by Electronics and Minerals

Communicating the data of the General Administration of Chinese Customs, the Africa-China Cooperation Association for Development has reported that Moroccan exports to China reached their highest level in 2022, with nearly $910 million (909,513,488 DH) against $824 million (823,967,026 DH) in 2021, an increase of 9.41%.

With a total value of $526 million (526,169,529 DH), or 57.85% of total exports, electrical and related industrial equipment rank first in exports. Mineral exports occupy the second place with $245 million (245,117,323 DH) in 2022 against $240 million (238,894,895) in 2021, or 26.95% of total exports.

With a value of $76.28 million (76 MDH), or 8.39% of total exports, textiles and leather products complete the top 3. Textiles amount to $67.29 million (about 67 MDH) and leather exports to $1.95 million (about 2 MDH), it is specified.

The explosion of Moroccan exports to China is explained by the Sino-Moroccan strategic partnership agreement signed in 2019, but also the vision and initiative of King Mohammed VI targeting the rebound of the national economy impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and the repercussions of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
