Investment and fleet direction

The 2025 acquisition of Transload by BLS brought more than 100 trucks into a broader logistics platform, while OMSAN’s 85 vehicle transporters underline the importance of finished-vehicle logistics to the Moroccan market.

Truck market

OEM brands competing for fleet orders

Renault Trucks, Volvo, Scania, MAN, Mercedes-Benz and Iveco compete in a sophisticated heavy-commercial market, with Chinese brands also widening their footprint in construction and price-sensitive applications.

Distribution

Dealers, workshops and aftersales

Renault Trucks alone operates through a multi-city network including Casablanca, Agadir, Tangier, Berrechid and Kenitra; rival OEMs maintain comparable commercial-service footprints around the major industrial and port centres.

Fleet economics

Taxation and import treatment

Morocco’s import economics are shaped by tariff classification, VAT, origin and its network of trade agreements, particularly with Europe. For fleet buyers, the country of origin can materially alter the landed cost of a tractor or component.

Asset strategy

New versus used equipment

The structured new-truck market and close integration with European supply chains support a sizeable professional used-equipment channel, but age, technical conformity and import rules still shape what enters the country.

Morocco’s public fleet disclosures are less abundant than those in East or Southern Africa, but several specialist operators provide hard numbers. The strongest recent transport-company disclosure is Transload’s fleet of more than 100 trucks, while OMSAN’s 85 vehicle transporters represent one of the continent’s largest specialist finished-vehicle fleets.
