Geographic location
The Dakhla Oued Eddahab region is located in the extreme south of the country on the borders of Mauritania. Such a position gives it the role of pivot and exchange platform between Morocco and Europe via the Atlantic Ocean on the one hand, and between Morocco and sub-Saharan Africa via Mauritania on the other hand..
“I think objectively that for investors who want to tackle the sub-Saharan market, Dakhla is undoubtedly the best location, in particular thanks to its infrastructure..
Due to its geographical location, the region benefits from an inexhaustible, stable and continuous resource: the wind.
