Morocco: drink prices will soar in cafes and restaurants

In Morocco, beverage prices will see a significant increase due to unprecedented increases in global prices of coffee beans in the main producing countries, Brazil and Vietnam.

“These increases come as professionals prepare for further increases in the price of coffee (around 50 dirhams per kilogram) from the start of 2025,” he told Hespress the national coordinator of the National Association of Café and Restaurant Owners in Morocco. Professionals “have no other solution than the intervention of the authorities concerned to resolve this problem by reducing import taxes, in accordance with the situation in the sector,” he analyzed. And to warn: “The absence of this intervention will lead directly to an increase in the prices of drinks in cafes”.
