Morocco’s textile exports to Europe have risen by 23 per cent to date this year compared to last year, according to the country’s industry minister Moulay Hafid Elalamy, who recently told a conference that the sector has benefited from incentives under the Industrial Acceleration Plan that helped create 116,500 jobs between 2014 and 2020.

Despite the pandemic, the country’s textile industry offered 10,684 new jobs last year, he was quoted as saying by a North Afircan news wbeiste.

The sector showed resilience in the face of the pandemic as manufacturers shifted production to meet domestic demand in terms of masks and protective gear and exported the surplus.

The minister also highlighted the competitiveness of Morocco’s business climate that helped attract investments by global textile manufacturers.
