North Africa: Diverse Opportunities from Casablanca to Cairo

Morocco and Egypt bookend this remarkable part of Africa, making each end of the continent in the NE and NW regions very different from each other. Bound in the south by the Sahara Desert and the north by the Mediterranean, North Africa has many divergences from the rest of Africa: culture, language, religion, proximity to Europe, generally strong demographics and diversifying tastes shown in local food processing. These factors make for an interesting mix of opportunities for US exporters. 

Morocco has a free trade agreement with the USA, making for a good keystone entry point to the Maghreb region, and other countries offer good opportunities for US agricultural products to enter. We will discuss the region as a whole, as well as specific countries by sector.

Speakers: Richard Zurba / Sandra Mady (Egypt), Bilel Mansouri (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt)
