A Moroccan human rights organization has raised concerns regarding new requirements for access to the wholesale fish market in Marrakech. The Moroccan Association for Human Rights – Menara branch – has contacted several public institutions, including the Ministry of Agriculture, Maritime Fisheries, Rural Development and Water and Forests, alleging the imposition of difficult-to-meet documentation and conditions. These new stipulations could hinder some professionals’ ability to operate within the market. Authorities, specifically the “Office des Pêches” (fishing office), deny tightening restrictions and claim no undue pressure is being applied. The situation has created tension within the market, with fears of limited access for some fish vendors. Further investigation is needed to clarify the exact nature of the new regulations and their impact on local businesses.
