Affordable fashion and e-commerce disruption reshape Morocco’s apparel and footwear market
Morocco's apparel and footwear market experienced a modest recovery in 2025, driven by demand for affordable fashion and a rebound in consumer confidence, with retail value sales reaching MAD29 billion, representing 4% growth. The market is expected to continue growing, with a forecast CAGR of 4% from 2025 to 2030, driven by budget-friendly brands and international fast fashion retailers. The entry of ultra-low-cost e-commerce platforms has disrupted the competitive landscape, forcing incumbents to diversify pricing tiers and invest in omnichannel visibility. As a result, the market is becoming increasingly polarised, with a clear divide between premium/lifestyle brands and ultra-budget e-commerce platforms.
