Morocco telecoms set to expand, with high broadband penetration

According to MarketWatch, Morocco is one of the most advanced telecommunications markets in Africa. It has mainly-privatised and highly profitable incumbent telco, three fixed network operators, mobile penetration of more than 55% plus the highest penetration and some of the lowest prices for broadband access anywhere in Africa. Good news not just for service providers but for anyone developing and licensing technologies in the sector is that the Moroccan market is predicted to experience continued spectacular growth that will see it reach levels of development rivalling those of some European markets over the next five to ten years.
