Morocco: Increase in food poisoning cases causes concern

In Morocco, the increase in cases of food poisoning in several cities is worrying consumer rights associations, which are calling for increased controls in restaurants and fast food establishments to ensure that hygiene and health safety rules are respected.

Ali Chtour, president of the Moroccan Association for the Defense of Consumer Rights, explained that the increase in cases of food poisoning is due in particular to the lack of hygiene and non-compliance with health safety standards in restaurants and fast food restaurants.
