Andalusian Honey Company Doray to Open New Plant in Morocco
Rabat – Seville-based honey company Doray has announced its plans to open a new production plant in Morocco by the end of 2025, according to Spanish media reports. This expansion is part of Doray's strategic growth plan, aiming to double its revenue to €20 million by 2028.
The family-owned business has been in the honey industry since the 1970s, with its first international venture taking place in Morocco in the 1990s, where it now operates a subsidiary.
With major customers in Morocco, the United States, and Europe, 80% of the company's current sales come from international markets.
'This expansion gives us more security to compete globally,' said Foray CEO Antonio Ramírez. The U.S. is currently one of the company's key markets, contributing 30% of its revenue, while another 30% comes from Morocco.
With the new plant the company expects to increase its workforce, currently at 30 employees in Spain and 15 in Morocco. Most of Doray's honey is sourced from Andalusian beekeepers, and the company is focusing on promoting its brand while also launching innovative honey-based products like spicy honey sauces and fruit-flavored toppings.
Doray's growth reflects a rising global demand for honey products, and the company is positioning itself to meet evolving consumer trends.
With its expansion in Morocco, Doray aims to increase production capacity, create jobs and solidify its dominance in the Moroccan honey market while sustaining its international growth. Tags: Morocco newsSevilla

En-Nesyri Set for Saudi Switch as Al Hilal Prepare Bid
Youssef En-Nesyri might be on the move once more – and this time, Saudi Arabia is calling. After a prolific season with Fenerbahçe, where he netted 30 goals and chipped in with seven assists across 52 games, the Moroccan forward has caught the eye of Al Hilal. The Saudi giants, who have just brought in Simone Inzaghi as manager, are ready to splash €40 million to lure him away from Istanbul. Fenerbahçe, who signed En-Nesyri from Sevilla for €19.5 million last year, are open to the deal. And they're not the only ones who stand to gain. Sevilla smartly included a 10% sell-on clause, meaning they'd pocket around €4 million from the transfer – a considerable sum at a time when they're missing out on European competition. This isn't the first time Saudi clubs have come knocking. Al Nassr had tried their luck with a €35 million offer last January, but Fenerbahçe held firm. Now, with a bigger bid on the table and En-Nesyri reportedly open to a new challenge after much backlash from fans in recent weeks, the stars might be aligning. If the move goes through, Fenerbahçe could use the cash to go after Aleksandar Mitrovic, who ironically plays for Al Hilal, as they look to bolster their frontline once again and compete for silverware next season.

LinkAI Brings Global Ad Intelligence to Morocco
Rabat – On June 19, Integrate, Kantar's exclusive affiliate in Morocco, will host a breakfast event in Casablanca to unveil LinkAI, a new tool that aims to reshape how brands approach advertising. Far from just another tech launch, the gathering invites marketers, creatives, and media professionals to reflect on the growing concern that most ads today go unnoticed. With a reported 85% of advertisements failing to capture enough attention, LinkAI offers a fresh path forward. It predicts how audiences might respond to an ad, not after it airs, but well before. The technology scans every frame of a video, detects drops in focus, emotional disconnects, and even signs of viewer fatigue. It also reads deeper cues like narrative tension and micro facial expressions to gauge potential impact. Unlike traditional testing, LinkAI supports finalized videos and early-stage animatics. This gives creative teams a chance to course-correct long before production wraps. Rooted in neuroscience and AI, the tool helps brands reduce the guesswork and build campaigns with stronger emotional and commercial traction. Already deployed in over 70 countries and backed by data from more than 230,000 ads, LinkAI lets marketers place their content in a global context. It can assess how well an ad might perform based on format, culture, and sector. Attendees will see the tool in action through live tests on both Moroccan and international ads.

King Mohammed VI, Trump to Announce Major Boeing Aircraft Purchase Deal
Rabat — Royal Air Maroc (RAM) is expected to renew its fleet through a new deal with Boeing, as well as a new small order from Airbus. Reuters quoted industry sources as saying that Royal Air Maroc is close to securing a deal with Boeing for dozens of jets. Europe's Airbus, however, is also seeking to supply the Moroccan carrier with a small order for 20 A220 jets. 'The sources asked not to be named because the negotiations are not public,' Reuters reported , noting that talks have been ongoing for over a year to enable Royal Air Maroc to renew its virtually all-Boeing fleet. The company is expected to cling to its traditional supplier for its demands, including the 737 MAX and 787 Dreamliner. 'While the fleet plan reinforces the carrier's historic ties with Boeing, the sources said, it opens the door to Airbus for the first time in almost 25 years with an order for the A220,' the news outlet said. It also recalled that the potential order from Airbus comes as Morocco and France are boosting bilateral ties at all levels. These ties have been building rapidly ever since France's historic decision to recognize Morocco's sovereignty over its southern provinces in Western Sahara in July of last year. Reuters' report came a few days after Bloomberg announced the same news, noting that Royal Air Maroc is in the final stages of a significant aircraft deal with Boeing, alongside a smaller agreement with Airbus. Bloomberg cited sources familiar with the matter, noting that the Boeing order could be delayed, potentially pending a high-level meeting between King Mohammed VI and US President Donald Trump. If confirmed, the high-level meeting could further upgrade the already strengthening ties between the US and Morocco, particularly as Washington has recently reaffirmed its steadfast support for Morocco's territorial integrity, especially over the southern provinces in Western Sahara. Earlier this month, Minister of Transport and Logistics Abdessamad Kayouh said in a parliamentary session on June 3 that Royal Air Maroc plans to acquire 10 more aircraft before the end of the year and another 10 in 2026. He said that the company also welcomed three Boeing 787 Dreamliners during the first week of June, on top of two new planes delivered earlier this year. In 2023, Royal Air Maroc announced that it is seeking to increase its fleet of commercial aircraft, boosting the number from 50 to 200 over the next 15 years. The program is part of the government's pledges to support the tourism roadmap. Morocco's ambition is to attract 65 million tourists by 2037. In 2024, the North African country celebrated a major milestone, welcoming over 17.4 million tourists. Tags: Royal Air Maroc (RAM)Royal Air Maroc Best Airline in Africa
