A significant new partnership is set to digitally empower 90,000 Moroccan merchants, fundamentally modernizing the nation’s retail landscape.

The program is structured to build greater resilience for small business owners and provide crucial support for entrepreneurs operating at the last mile of the supply chain. Ultimately, the goal is to cultivate lasting sustainability and drive innovation within one of the continent’s most vital economic sectors.
This nationwide rollout in Morocco serves as the inaugural phase of WOLIZ’s expansive vision to redefine the future of community retail across Africa. The country is positioned to act as a strategic launchpad, with the lessons and successes from this project expected to create a powerful ripple effect, influencing positive change throughout the wider region.
