The company reports a strong pullback in demand since August 2022 following an encouraging first half. This drop in demand is due in particular to numerous projects postponed due to persistent inflation.
In a communiqué published on its website on November 23, the company Aluminum du Maroc announces that following the board of directors meeting on November 21, 2022, the Aluminum Group of Morocco anticipates a Positive net income as of December 31, 2022, but down around 75% compared to net income as of December 31, 2021.
The group explains that following “the good performances recorded in the first half of 2022, at the end of which the group published encouraging results, the market has suddenly reversed with a sharp drop in demand since August 2022“.
The group justifies this drop by “the postponement of many projects in Morocco and abroad, given the high inflation of construction costs, but also the reduction in stock levels built up in times of material shortage, practiced by market players”.
