Moroccan Agency for Logistics Development

The Moroccan Agency for Logistics Development (French: Agence Marocaine de Développement de la Logistique; AMDL) is a strategic public institution responsible for coordinating and implementing the national logistics strategy in Morocco. Established in 2011, the agency aims to enhance the competitiveness of the national economy by reducing logistics costs and improving supply chain efficiency.

Missions

The AMDL operates as the operational arm of the national logistics strategy, focusing on four main pillars:

  • Logistics Infrastructure: Planning and developing a national network of multi-modal logistics zones.
  • Enterprise Support: Improving the logistics performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
  • Human Resources: Developing professional training and certification in the logistics sector.
  • Regulation: Proposing legal and regulatory frameworks to modernize the logistics market.

Strategic Projects and Investments

2026 Investment Program

For the 2026 fiscal year, the AMDL announced an investment budget of approximately 660 million MAD. This funding is primarily allocated to the acceleration of regional logistics platforms and the modernization of existing trade corridors.

Logistics Zones Development

The agency is overseeing the development of several strategic logistics hubs. In 2024 and 2025, major progress was made in the following zones:

  • Ait Melloul (Agadir): A critical zone for the southern agricultural exports.
  • Tamansourt (Marrakech): Aimed at serving the tourism and local trade sectors.
  • Kenitra and Casablanca: Focused on supporting the growing automotive and industrial ecosystems.

SME Supply Chain 2025–2029

In late 2024, the AMDL launched the "PME Supply Chain" program (2025–2029). This initiative provides technical and financial support to Moroccan SMEs to optimize their logistics operations and integrate sustainable practices into their supply chains.

Green Logistics Initiative

Aligning with Morocco's commitment to decarbonization, the AMDL promotes "Green Logistics." This includes the implementation of a national charter to reduce the carbon footprint of transport activities, supported by international partners such as UPS and the OECD.

Leadership

The agency is led by Ghassane El Machrafi, who was appointed as Director General in 2024. He is credited with focusing on innovation and the digital transformation of the national supply chain.
