At the crossroads of Europe and Africa, North Africa serves as a critical logistics hub. For instance, Tangier Med Port in Morocco links over 180 global ports, handling more than 53 million tons of cargo annually. With exports surpassing $12 billion in phosphates and related goods in 2022, the maritime sector significantly bolsters regional GDP.

 

Countries like Morocco and Egypt offer special economic zones and incentives, including tax benefits and streamlined regulatory frameworks, attracting diverse foreign investments. North Africa provides proximity to both the European Union and Sub-Saharan markets, enabling businesses to efficiently serve multiple regions.
