Morocco Economic Trends: Growth, Infrastructure, and 2030
Overview
Morocco is experiencing significant economic and structural shifts, largely driven by massive infrastructure investments in preparation for the 2030 FIFA World Cup. The tourism sector has seen record growth, with 14.1 million visitors through August 2026. In 2025, the sector's contribution to national GDP rose to 7.5%, with tourism-related GDP increasing by 11.7% to 129.7 billion dirhams.
Recent data highlights a surge in foreign direct investment (FDI), which nearly doubled from 17 billion dirhams in 2024 to 31 billion dirhams in 2025. Complementing this, migrant remittances reached approximately $13.7 billion in 2025, representing 7% of Morocco's GDP.
By late 2026, the economic landscape showed mixed results. While the country reached a historic 54th rank in the Global Innovation Index—climbing from 75th in 2020—economic growth slowed to 4% in the second quarter of 2026, down from 5.8% in 2025. This slowdown was marked by a 3.9% contraction in the secondary sector, though the agricultural sector saw a 21.2% value-added increase. Additionally, the cumulative turnover of Morocco's 500 largest companies reached 1,145 billion dirhams, led by OCP S.A.
Inflationary pressures remain a factor; while consumer prices rose 0.5% year-on-year in September 2026, transport costs saw a significant 9.4% annual increase. To sustain momentum, the government's roadmap for 2026–2031 targets an average annual growth rate of 5% and aims to attract 26 million tourists by 2030.
