Morocco food prices June 2026: vegetables down, fish up
Food prices fell in Morocco in June 2026, but this overall decline masks sharply contrasting shifts across store shelves. While vegetables and several staple products became cheaper, fish, fruits and certain beverages moved in the opposite direction.
The consumer price index fell by 0.4% in June compared to May, according to the High Commission for Planning. This decline is mainly explained by a 0.8% decrease in food product prices, accompanied by a 0.2% drop in non-food products.

Vegetables recorded the most marked decline, with a drop of 5.2% in one month. Prices for milk, cheese and eggs also fell by 1.9%. Meat, as well as bread and cereals, declined by 0.3%, while oils and fats decreased by 0.1%.
Fish takes the opposite path
However, not all food products benefited from this lull. Fish and seafood saw their prices increase by 3.4% between May and June, the strongest rise recorded in food. Fruits also rose by 0.8%, compared to 0.2% for coffee, tea and cocoa.
Over a year, food prices remain on a downward trend. Their index fell by 2.3% compared to June 2025. This contrasts with non-food products, which became 2.3% more expensive over the same period.
