Morocco inflation by city: price increases and decreases April 2026

Household budgets are experiencing contradictory shocks. While grocery bills ease at the market thanks to falling prices for fish, dairy products and vegetables, this respite is swept away by energy costs. The High Planning Commission reveals a surge of 21.8% in fuel prices within a single month. This dynamic propels the transport sector and mechanically drives up the overall consumer price index, setting annual inflation at 1.7% in April, compared to just 0.9% in March.

Financial pressure varies sharply by region, hitting Laâyoune, Tétouan and Casablanca hard, while Marrakech enjoys slight deflation. To stem this overall instability, the State is deploying new financial tools. The government has approved a decree unlocking additional credits to the general budget. This envelope aims to maintain subsidies on electricity and butane gas, destabilized by the Middle East war, while covering emergency expenses resulting from flooding in the Gharb and Loukkos areas.
