Royal Air Maroc Cargo Hub Beijing Africa Logistics Strategy

The link with Beijing holds an important place in this strategy. It should allow Royal Air Maroc Cargo to capture part of African demand for products from Asia, while using African exports to balance its flows to Europe, the Americas and other markets, according to Air Cargo Week, in its June 15, 2026 edition, Royal Air Maroc Cargo wants to make Casablanca a redistribution hub between Asia and Africa.

Casablanca is presented as an asset against major traditional hubs. Thanks to its African network, the airline can redistribute goods to over 30 destinations on the continent and reduce certain transit times by up to 24 hours. This speed is particularly important for perishable, pharmaceutical, electronic or temperature-sensitive products.

Royal Air Maroc Cargo relies on the cargo holds of its Boeing 787s and a Boeing 767 all-cargo aircraft capable of carrying 45 tonnes. This organization allows it to adjust its capacity according to demand, without permanently tying up an aircraft on a single route, indicates Air Cargo Week, which devotes in its June 15, 2026 edition an analysis to the cargo strategy of the Moroccan airline.

The airline thus seeks to make Casablanca a crossroads between four continents. Asian goods can be redistributed to Africa, while African exports head back to Europe, the Americas or Asia. For Morocco, the stakes go beyond air transport: it is about strengthening the country’s position in logistics trade between Africa and the rest of the world.
