Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to strengthen trade between the United Kingdom and Morocco.

The Department for Business and Trade is committed to helping UK businesses export to Morocco, supported by the UK-Morocco Association Agreement in force since January 2021. Bilateral trade was worth £4.2 billion in 2024, up £0.6 billion in current prices from 2023. An example of the opportunities for further UK-Morocco business partnerships comes with Morocco co-hosting the 2030 FIFA World Cup, where opportunities are emerging for British businesses.

In January 2025, Ben Coleman MP was appointed Trade Envoy for Morocco and Francophone West Africa to support the UK’s growth agenda with Morocco.
