The Agadir Logistics Zone in Morocco has secured its first batch of operators, with 16 companies selected to establish their projects in the zone. The AMDL, through its subsidiary SMIL, launched a call for interest which drew significant attention from economic and logistics operators. The demand far exceeded the available offer, according to the AMDL.
The selected operators include prominent names such as SNTL, La Voie Express, BHF Atlas, BIM Maroc, Soft Group, and Sahara Logistic Nord, among others. They will be involved in various logistics and real estate projects, with the AMDL stressing that the zone will feature class A warehouses. The SMIL had initiated steps for the conclusion of acts for lots that will host these projects.
The AMDL has notified the selected operators to conclude the necessary cession acts within a firm deadline of 30 days. This move marks a significant milestone in the development of the Agadir Logistics Zone, which is expected to boost Morocco's logistics sector. The zone's development is part of Morocco's broader strategy to enhance its logistics infrastructure.
Following this initial phase, the AMDL is set to launch the commercialization of the Ouled Saleh – Nouaceur Logistics Zone, located south of Casablanca. The zone, spanning 70 hectares, is nearing completion of its development works. This new zone is expected to offer XL-sized plots, catering to the growing needs of logistics and industrial operators in the region.
The Agadir Logistics Zone's development is a key part of Morocco's efforts to improve its logistics capabilities. The zone is expected to serve as a major hub for the country's logistics sector, providing modern infrastructure and facilities for operators. The AMDL's efforts to develop such zones are aimed at supporting Morocco's economic growth.
The launch of the Agadir Logistics Zone and the upcoming commercialization of the Ouled Saleh – Nouaceur zone demonstrate Morocco's commitment to enhancing its logistics infrastructure. These developments are expected to have a positive impact on the country's economy and its position as a logistics hub in the region.
The successful completion of these logistics zones will likely attract further investment into Morocco's logistics sector, contributing to the country's economic growth and development. The AMDL's initiatives are seen as crucial in supporting Morocco's ambitions to become a major player in the global logistics market.
