Black cherries
Moroccan black cherries are attractive for their deep color, sweet, slightly tart taste and juicy flesh. Highly prized on international markets, they benefit from the Kingdom's unique climatic conditions, enabling high-quality production. Thanks to its constantly evolving agricultural expertise, Morocco has established itself as a reliable and competitive supplier of black cherries, particularly for European and Middle Eastern markets.
Main growing regions
Black cherries are grown in several areas with temperate climates and ideal altitudes, guaranteeing slow ripening and a high sugar content:
