Agadir – Morocco’s automotive industry generated more than MAD 58.28 billion ($6.3 billion) in export revenues during the first four months of 2026, according to the latest figures released by the Exchange Office.
The sector recorded an 18.6% increase in exports compared to the same period in 2025, contributing significantly to the overall growth of Morocco’s foreign trade.
The strong performance was largely driven by automotive manufacturing activities, whose exports rose by 33.5% to reach MAD 23.88 billion ($2.59 billion) by the end of April. The wiring harness segment also posted solid growth, with exports increasing by 16.1% to MAD 22.09 billion ($2.39 billion).
Morocco’s aeronautics industry also maintained its trajectory during the period. Exports from the sector reached MAD 11.03 billion ($1.19 billion), marking a 15.9% increase year-on-year.
The growth was supported by a 20.7% rise in assembly activities and a 6.9% increase in exports from the Electrical Wiring Interconnection System (EWIS) segment.
Despite this performance, several other key sectors recorded declines in export results. Exports of textiles and leather products fell by 6.7%, while electronics and electrical equipment exports dropped by 3.5%.
Exports of phosphates and phosphate derivatives, traditionally one of Morocco’s most important export categories, also decreased by 1.5% during the first four months of the year.
Meanwhile, the agriculture and agri-food sector returned to positive growth, registering a modest increase of 0.8% after experiencing weaker performance in the previous period.
Overall, Moroccan exports reached MAD 168.85 billion ($18.3 billion) by the end of April 2026, representing an annual increase of 8.7%.
