The Arab parliament has urged Morocco to make available its experience and know-how in the automobile industry to other Arab countries so the latter can set up robust automobile industries, Le360.ma reports. The Arab Parliament delegation was headed by its Speaker Adel bin Abdurrahman Al-Assoomi. During the meeting, Ryad Mezzour, Morocco’s Minister of Trade and Industry, recalled that Morocco is planning to manufacture 2 millions cars per annum. Morocco this month lifted the curtain on two prototypes made by Moroccans in the field of the automotive sector. Industry represents some 25% of Morocco’s GDP with the automotive sector, in particular topping manufactured exports in 2022, with 111 billion dirhams (or 11 billion dollars), up 33%.
