Morocco’s increasing consumption of alcoholic beverages has attracted the interest in Chinese investors. According to a report by Lemag.ma on December 10, Tsingtao Brewery Co. Ltd., China’s second-largest brewery, has sent a commercial mission to Morocco to study the possibilities of entering the market in the nearest future.
