Moroccan exporters' association signs convention with association of French small, medium enterprises

The association of Moroccan exporters (ASMEX) signed earlier this week in the French city of Lyon a partnership convention with the general confederation of small and medium-sized enterprises of the Rhone-Alpes region.

Under the convention that seeks to enhance trade exchanges and promote joint investments, the confederation will extend assistance to Moroccan exporters wishing to operate in the Rhone-Alpes region, which is the second industrial and economic region in France.

The convention was signed on the sidelines of a forum on Moroccan economy, held in Lyon part of the year-long Morocco's festival in France. The forum was chaired by Moroccan minister of economy and finance, Fathallah Oualalou.
