With the introduction of a new digitalised export control system, shipments of agrifood products are becoming more competitive. As a result, the trade balance for agrifood products is in surplus for the second year running. This new system was launched in September 2018 and a pilot operation is currently under way for exports of agricultural products from Agadir transiting through Tanger Med. According to officials at the Autonomous Export Control and Coordination Establishment (EACCE), this process saves considerable time in processing operators and, consequently, improves the competitiveness of Moroccan exports.
