Turning the opportunities of the project bank into reality is one of the priorities of the Industrial Recovery Plan implemented by the Kingdom. In this context, the Ministry of Industry signed, last February, a second batch of investment agreements relating to 52 projects in the productive sectors. With a total value of 4.2 billion dirhams, these projects will generate 12,583 jobs. An important step that bears witness to the important role of the project bank as a lever for accelerating industrial investment, developing local manufacturing and promoting entrepreneurship.
Of the 52 investment agreements, 11 were signed in the chemicals and para-chemicals sector, notably pharmaceuticals, organic chemistry and plastics processing. The mechanical and metallurgical industry sector is also concerned, with the signing of 7 agreements. The agri-food sector also benefited from 6 agreements for the creation of fish processing, treatment and upgrading plants.
