Agriculture plays an important role within Morocco and around 40% of the work force is employed in this sector. This is partly the result of a mild climate - certainly by African standards - and the possibility to irrigate large areas, giving Morocco very fertile soil. An increase in the production of farm crops has taken place in recent years. Important export products for the country are citrus, vegetables and fish.

Important products for Total Produce B.V. are citrus and, to a lesser degree, potatoes.

Having collaborated with partners in the country for many years and thanks to stable relationships with a number of major shipping agents, Total Produce B.V. - in spite of growing demand from the internal market - has been able to guarantee the desired products in terms of volume, taste and quality.
