The presentation represented an opportunity to take an in-depth look at these countries to assess their potential. How is the cleaning market structured in Algeria, Egypt, and Morocco? What are the main trends? Who are the key players? 

I had the pleasure of sharing with key Italian and foreign businesses the potential of the Moroccan market and the opportunities it can offer to the cleaning industry,” commented Mohamed Sami Ben Jelloul, a trade analyst at the Italian Trade Agency in Casablanca, Morocco. 

According to Eurostat, Italy was Morocco‘s second largest foreign supplier of machines for the cleaning industry in 2021, with 21.7% of the market. We can do more and better by sharing know-how, creating opportunities, and thinking about possible partnerships,” Mr. Ben Jelloul concluded.
