The telecommunications sector in Morocco continues to display a solid performance in the first quarter of 2025, supported by sustained growth in subscriptions to mobile telephony and the Internet, according to data published by the Directorate of Studies and Financial Forecasts (DEPF), under the Ministry of Economy and Finance.
At the end of March 2025, the mobile telephony park reached 57.4 million subscribers, registering an annual increase of 3.9 %. This development has enabled the mobile penetration rate to cross the threshold of 155.8 %, against 149.2 % at the same period in 2024 and 127 % in March 2019, reflecting increasingly wide coverage of the national territory in mobile services.
The Internet segment also continued its expansion with nearly 39.9 million subscriptions recorded in the first quarter of 2025, an annual increase of 4.1 %. The internet penetration rate rose to 108.2 %, compared to 103.4 % a year earlier and 65.6 % at the same period in 2019.
These figures confirm the digital transformation dynamics of the kingdom and the continuous evolution of digital uses, thanks to an offer of services in constant improvement and increased accessibility to information technologies.
