Water treatment: the Belgian company Waterleau gets valuable help from its local partners to support its development in Morocco |
Anissa Temsamani, Vice-President International Relations and Public Affairs of Waterleau
The Belgian wastewater treatment market is a limited one and our company is obliged to expand abroad. Waterleau has therefore set up shop in China, Brasil, India, etc., while always following the same rule: work with local partners, put down roots in the host country and take a long-term view.
Accordingly, when our company was selected in 2008 by the Marrakech water and electricity distribution authority Radeema (Régie autonome de distribution d’eau et d’électricité de Marrakech), we turned to the Moroccan company Sotradema.

For the Dutch group APM Terminals, Tanger-Med is a textbook success story |
Étienne Rocher, Managing Director of APM Terminals Tangier
The Straits of Gibraltar are a strategic shipping route, at the crossroads for East-West and North-South sea traffic. Over 200 ships pass through the Straits every day. The Tanger-Med port occupies a unique position at this crossroads. It is both highly competitive and strategically placed and can receive and handle the world’s largest container ships. It was this favourable position that prompted APM Terminals to start up a business there. We operate in a highly competitive environment and competition is particularly fierce in the transshipment business, which represents almost 98% of our activity.
