A genuine ecosystem generating opportunities, SIAM was a success for all stakeholders. First of all for the Chamber, whose ambition was to demonstrate Switzerland’s ability to support national farmers in developing the ORGANIC sector. Indeed, the CCSM and the Organic Entrepreneurs Club (CEBio) of the General Confederation of Moroccan Enterprises (CGEM) signed an agreement aimed at enabling CEBio members to benefit from the technical expertise of Swiss companies that are members of the CCSM in the fields of certification, logistics, transport, training, risk assessment and management, and organic farming. A success too for all our companies already present in Morocco, which also concluded partnerships, whether or not annexed to the agreement with CEBio. For some Swiss SMEs not yet present in the Kingdom, new fields of action have emerged. At government level, Morocco and Switzerland signed a declaration of intent for a technical dialogue in the fields of sustainable agriculture and sustainable food systems.
Taking stock, eleven agreements were therefore ratified between our two countries. Agreements that will generate added value, the sharing of expertise and sustainable jobs, and that bear fresh witness to the exemplary and growing understanding between Morocco and Switzerland.
