Morocco to create new textile sector jobs
Morocco plans to partner with private industry to create 250,000 jobs in the textile sector by 2025, Ansa quoted Trade Minister Abdelkader Amara as saying on Monday (May 13th).
At a projected cost of 30 billion dirhams (2.7 billion euros), the programme aims to capture 1% of the world market.
Late last month, Employment Minister Abdelouahed Souhail hinted to lawmakers that new projects to address youth jobs in Morocco would soon be announced.
