Mystery still surrounds information recently circulated on a limited scale indicating that “Société Midi Atlas de Travaux Divers SARL” (or “Midi Atlas for Diverse Works” as it is officially known) from the city of Fes won the contract to construct or rehabilitate the municipal stadium in Tahla (Taza province) with a financial value approaching 10 million and 491 thousand dirhams (more than one billion centimes).
According to local and media sources that were investigated, no official announcement or published news has been found confirming this company’s winning of the mentioned contract, either on the national public procurement portal or in local and national media outlets to date.
Actual Works… But Without the Contractor’s Name
What is confirmed is that the municipal stadium in Tahla has witnessed real rehabilitation works over the past two years, which included:
- Covering the stadium ground with latest-generation artificial turf
- Installing the lighting system
- Developing the stands and associated facilities
In November 2025, the completion of a major phase of these works was announced, which is the fruit of a partnership between the Ministry of Youth, Culture and Communication and the Tahla Municipal Council. However, official and media reports did not reveal at any point the identity of the executing company or the exact value of the contract.
Who is “Midi Atlas for Diverse Works” Company?
The mentioned company is actually registered in Fes under the trade name “STE MEDI ATLAS DE TRAVAUX DIVERS SARL,” headquartered in the Bensouda neighborhood, with a capital of 6 million dirhams, and specializes in diverse public works (roads, construction, urban development…). Despite its known activity in the region, no official link has been recorded between it and the Tahla municipal stadium project in available public records.
Possible Scenarios for the News Not Appearing
- The contract is still in the final award process and the announcement has not been published yet.
- The project was awarded through a direct negotiated contract (which sometimes limits publicity).
- There may be confusion between the municipal stadium project and another project in the area (such as the development of Ain Chaaba garden or adjacent sports facilities).
- Inaccurate or premature information.
Residents’ Demands Continue
It should be noted that the residents of Tahla have repeatedly expressed their dissatisfaction with the slow pace of works, especially in May 2024 when work stopped for months, which prompted youth and sports associations to organize protest vigils demanding acceleration of the pace.
Brief Timeline of Tahla Municipal Stadium Works
| Period | Event |
|---|---|
| 2023-2024 | Start of rehabilitation works (artificial turf + lighting) |
| May 2024 | Temporary halt to works and residents’ dissatisfaction |
| October 2025 | Resumption of works and announcement of imminent opening |

In conclusion, although the project is real and tangible on the ground, linking “Midi Atlas for Diverse Works” company to the Tahla municipal stadium contract worth over 10.49 million dirhams remains officially unconfirmed until now. Referring to the public procurement portal (www.marchespublics.gov.ma) or direct contact with the Tahla Municipal Council remains the only way to obtain certain information.
We will follow up on the matter as soon as any official statement is issued in this regard.
