Vodafone Business and Maroc Telecom Partner to Boost Morocco’s Digital Ambitions with Smart City Solutions

Vodafone Business  and Maroc Telecom , part of Emirates Telecommunications Group (e&), have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to provide connectivity and digital services to enterprise customers in Morocco, with the first phase focusing on smart city and energy management solutions. It enhances Vodafone’s existing presence in eight African countries via Vodacom and supports Morocco’s ambition to become a major digital hub by 2030.

The partnership will expand over time to encompass a range of enterprise products and services including Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WAN), Mobile Private Networks, cloud solutions, and cybersecurity. Customers will be able to tailor Vodafone Business’s global connectivity services and digital platforms with Maroc Telecom’s local know-how to meet their specific local in-country needs and regulatory requirements.

The two companies will also serve Maroc Telecom’s multi-national and regional customers working across key industry sectors such as logistics, manufacturing, retail, and public services, providing them with a unified portfolio of managed service that can be quickly scaled across multiple markets. Comprehensive pre and after-sales support, billing, implementation, and management are provided, focused on delivering customer success.

By partnering with Maroc Telecom, we can boost the adoption of new digital services in Morocco in support of the country’s digital ambitions. Maroc Telecom’s local expertise and digital skills combined with Vodafone’s scalable, secure platforms will underpin new fintech, healthcare, and industrial applications driven by a young workforce and startup culture.
