The Business France agency revealed that Morocco is the first African investor in France, ranking 17th worldwide in 2021, according to recent data.

Morocco’s investments in France provide 259 job opportunities through 15 projects, said the agency.

“The agency’s data demonstrates Morocco’s position as the first African investor,” said Helene le Gal, France’s ambassador to Morocco.

Additionally, most of Morocco’s investments in France are in the software and services sectors.

In terms of geographical location, data indicates a greater presence of Moroccan investments in the regions of Paris-Ile-de-France, Normandie, and Sud Provence Alpes cote d’Azur.

These findings came after the agency published the outcome of international investments in France, which amounted to 1,607 projects in 2021, an increase of 32% compared to 2020.
