    HAMBURG's Hapag-Lloyd has opened its own offices in Morocco as the company continues to realise growth in North Africa.

    Morocco, being an important platform for the export of fresh produce, is part of Hapag-Lloyd's development strategy in the refrigerated container transport sector.

    The country also export minerals, chemicals, textiles and food products, especially to European countries. Imports consist mainly of electronics, spare parts, and food products, reports the London Guardian.

    Morocco is connected to the global Hapag-Lloyd network by the port of Tanger-Med, which is a strategically important port for the entire logistics industry. Last year, Hapag-Lloyd acquired a 10 per cent stake in container terminal 3 (TC3) at the port of Tanger-Med 2.

    Juan Pablo Richards, senior managing director region South Europe of Hapag-Lloyd, said: "The Moroccan economy has grown steadily over the last years. Many Moroccan shippers have already experienced Hapag-Lloyd¡äs services. With the opening of our new representation in the country, we strive to meet customers¡ä requirements for proximity and quality of service."

    Hapag-Lloyd's presence in Morocco is achieved through three offices with the headquarters being Casablanca and two satellite offices in both Tangier and Agadir, with a total of 47staff.
