Red Potatoes

Moroccan red potatoes are renowned for their fine, colorful skin, firm flesh and excellent cooking properties. They are particularly well suited to the fresh produce, catering and food processing markets. Thanks to well-suited terroirs and a well-positioned season, Morocco offers large volumes of red potatoes for export every year.

Main growing regions

Red potatoes are grown in specialized agricultural regions with light, well-drained soils:

Doukkala - El Jadida: main production area, good yield.
Gharb - Kenitra: sandy soil, homogeneous sizes.
Tadla - Béni Mellal: winter crop, sweet flesh.
Marrakech - Haouz: ideal conditions for off-season crops.
