As part of its ongoing global expansion, animal health and nutrition company, Alltech, has opened its first office in Morocco. The new facility, which was officially opened on July 1 2008, will provide sales and service support to the growing number of partners and customers in the country.
Both Morocco’s growing dairy market and its poultry sector will be major focal points for the new office.
Speaking at the opening of the new office, Alltech’s North Africa Manager and Morocco’s General Manager, Patrick Géliot, said “As the fifth economic power of Africa, Morocco represents an important market for Alltech. I am delighted that this new office will enable us to build stronger relationships within the country as well as facilitating growth throughout the Maghreb region.”
Initially, the office will be staffed by General Manager, Patrick Géliot, Office Manager, Najwa Baroudi and Sales Manager, Rachid Mahsoun who together will provide localised technical support to customers and advice on nutrition and feed formulation.

Since it was founded 28 years ago, Alltech has developed a strong regional presence throughout the world, with 1,900 employees and a presence in 113 countries.
