Morocco's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Overview (1961–2023)
Morocco's GDP has experienced significant fluctuations from 1961 to 2023, reflecting the country’s economic evolution and resilience. Starting from just over $2 billion in 1961, the economy expanded steadily for several decades, driven by agricultural reforms, industrial diversification, and increased tourism. By the early 2000s, GDP growth accelerated, peaking at over $128 billion in 2019 before the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a downturn in 2020.
Recovery efforts led to GDP rebounding to approximately $141 billion in 2023, bolstered by sectors like renewable energy, manufacturing, and services. External factors such as global commodity prices, foreign investments, and regional stability have significantly influenced this growth trajectory. Continued investments in infrastructure and education are vital for sustaining future economic growth and addressing challenges like unemployment and socio-economic disparities.
