Marsa Maroc operates container, bulk and general cargo terminals in Moroccan ports. It handles goods between ships and shore and manages their storage.
History

It took over the commercial business of the former port operator ODEP. The state floated part of its capital on the stock exchange in July 2016 and remains the majority shareholder.
