A large delegation of Moroccan businessmen is participating in the fair to promote Moroccan industrial products in the Libyan market, to consolidate partnership with their Libyan peers while tapping the Maghreban and COMESA markets.

The fair, held November 4-8, is initiated by the Moroccan association of exporters in cooperation with the Arab Libyan investment company and Morocco's embassy in Tripoli.
