The turnover of the Offshore sector reached 7.3 billion dirhams in 2012, while sector jobs, across all sectors, are estimated at 57,000, announced the Ministry of Industry, Trade and New Technologies.
Nearly 90 companies, including a range of international references, are already established in the integrated industrial platforms (P2I) offshoring, six years after the launch of the development strategy of this sector, indicates the ministry in a press release.
A national training plan for the offshoring sector has been developed in addition to the launch of specific initiatives to meet the urgent needs of companies in the sector such as the "Call Academy" program, designed to meet the needs of call centers in terms of French language training, specifies the press release.
In order to preserve the competitiveness of Morocco as a destination, a study on the evaluation of the implementation of the offshoring strategy has been launched to update the strategy, in view of the changes that have taken place in the sector globally and nationally, and should lead in particular to an adjustment of the job and market targets and the Morocco value proposition.
In order to ensure better monitoring and exchanges with the economic operators of the offshoring sector, an information platform will be created shortly for better visibility on the evolution of the sector, assures the ministry.
Offshoring is one of the most promising sectors for the national economy. As a result, a competitive offshoring offer adapted to the needs of investors in this sector has been proposed. The objective is to achieve export turnover of 20 billion dirhams by 2015, through the creation of 70,000 jobs during the period 2009-2015, and to reach nearly 100,000 jobs in the long term.
The Moroccan offer advocated for the development of this sector has been in effect since 2007 and confirmed by the National Pact for Industrial Emergence (PNEI) in 2009.
This offer is structured around the following components: an offer of infrastructure and services to investors to the highest international standards, through the development of P2I (Integrated Industrial Platforms) dedicated to the offshoring sector, an attractive incentive tax framework (State contribution linked to income tax) and a system for developing qualified human resources (training aid, training plan).
