Market trends in Morocco and France

Overview

Market conditions in Morocco and France show diverse trends across different sectors. In the second quarter of 2026, Morocco’s wholesale market exhibited limited growth, with 60% of wholesalers reporting stability and 87% maintaining normal inventory levels. While 33% of Moroccan professionals increased rates, most maintained current prices.

In France, the retail sector experienced a decline in physical store traffic and sales, with specialized retail sales falling by 2.8% year-on-year. Despite these challenges, professional confidence indicators in France have risen above long-term averages.

Concurrently, the second-hand and vintage market is seeing significant expansion. In Morocco, this growth is visible through thrift stores, flea markets, and online platforms, driven by a broader global trend toward sustainable consumption and unique goods.
