Rabat - American automaker Ford Motor Company is preparing to launch a production facility in Morocco.
The giant manufacturer will open an assembly plant in the free zone of Tangier, according to sources quoted by news website Telquel.
The opening of the plant will be announced at a press conference in Casablanca on May 26th. The company's executive Chairman William Clay Ford, Jr. will arrive in Morocco a day before the conference. He is also expected to hold a meeting with Industry Minister Moulay Hafid Elalamy.
