Internationally known for its capital, Agadir – a traditional holiday destination for European tourists – Souss Massa is increasingly positioning itself as an industrial centre and strategic gateway between North and sub-Saharan Africa. The rise of value-added processing at its industrial zones, ongoing human resource development and a burgeoning start-up ecosystem underpin a positive outlook for growth. At the same time, long-term investment under flagship national programmes such as the Industrial Acceleration Plan are catalysing development in the region and adding value to key sectors such as agriculture and fisheries.
