Rabat, April 20, 2025 – In a notable move reflecting the new direction of Maroc Telecom’s management under its new Chairman, Mr. Mohamed Benchaboun, the company has announced a significant initiative to increase internet speeds for its customers in Morocco. This coincides with positive indicators regarding the company’s regaining investor confidence and its efforts to strengthen its leading position in the market.
Fiber optic (fiber) service customers recently received messages confirming free upgrades to their subscription speeds. Subscribers to the 100 Mbps package have had their speed increased to 200 Mbps, while those on the 200 Mbps package have been upgraded to 1 Gbps. New prices for these packages have also been set and will take effect starting May 1st.
These service developments come shortly after Mr. Mohamed Benchaboun assumed the position of Chairman of the Management Board of Maroc Telecom at the end of February 2025, succeeding Mr. Abdeslam Ahizoune. The financial market has reacted positively to this change. Reports and analyses, including those published by the “Madar 21” website based on an analysis by AGR Research, indicate expectations of stable profitability for the company for the first time since 2019 and recommendations to hold its stock, reflecting the beginning of the company’s regaining investor trust.
Observers believe that these dual steps – improving the quality and speed of internet provided to citizens on the one hand, and working to enhance financial performance and restore vitality to the stock market on the other – fall within the new management’s strategy under Benchaboun’s leadership to fully restore Maroc Telecom’s leadership and reaffirm its position as a key player in the national and African telecommunications sector.
