Moroccan textile manufacturers Mazafil and Cosyfil have petitioned for antidumping duties on long-pile fabrics imported from China and Egypt, used in blanket production. The companies allege these imports are being sold at unfairly low prices, harming domestic competition. They argue that the imposition of tariffs is necessary to restore a level playing field within the Moroccan market. This request centers on addressing what they perceive as predatory pricing practices from foreign producers. The move aims to protect the local textile industry and maintain its competitiveness. The petition was formally submitted, seeking government intervention to investigate and potentially implement the requested tariffs. This development signals growing concerns about import competition within Morocco’s textile sector.
