According to the explanatory note on the 2027 Finance Bill, the government will launch the creation of six regional distribution companies in 2027 in the country’s main agricultural basins, including Souss.

The government plans to launch the creation of six regional distribution companies in 2027 across the major agricultural regions of Souss, Tadla, Gharb, Loukkos, Doukkala-Abda and the Oriental.

Outlined in the explanatory note accompanying the 2027 Finance Bill, the measure aims to modernize marketing channels, strengthen producers’ bargaining power and encourage competition among intermediaries.
