The social e-commerce platform Taager, founded in Egypt and headquartered in Saudi Arabia, has officially entered Morocco by launching its operations in Casablanca. This move marks the company’s first expansion into North Africa.
Taager was founded in 2019 by Abdelrahman Sherief, Ahmed Ismail, Ismail Omar, and Mohammed Elhorishy. The company offers services such as product sourcing, warehousing, shipping, and customer delivery, enabling anyone to establish and grow their own social e-commerce business. This step represents the company’s first North African expansion following its presence in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.
Taager Aims to Make Online Selling More Accessible for Digital-Focused Entrepreneurs
The expansion targets Morocco’s rapidly growing e-commerce sector. Taager aims to make online selling more accessible for young, digital-focused entrepreneurs. Taager’s entry into Morocco reflects the increasing regional demand for low-barrier e-commerce tools. With its young population and rising digital transformation, Morocco represents a high-potential market for the company’s MENA expansion strategy. Earlier this year, Taager completed a pre-Series B funding round of $6.75 million, led by the Africa-focused tech investment fund Norrsken22.
“Our Goal Is to Reduce the Barriers Preventing Young People from Starting Online Businesses”
Taager Co-Founder Abdelrahman Sherief said, “Morocco brings together a connected young population and a strong digital ecosystem. Our goal is to reduce the barriers that prevent young people from starting online businesses.”
Taager’s Moroccan operations will be led by Salma Ammor, who has experience scaling digital ventures. Ammor will focus on providing Moroccan youth with the tools they need to accelerate their businesses. She summarises the company’s mission as follows: “Our aim is to equip young Moroccan entrepreneurs with accessible e-commerce tools that enable them to build and grow their own businesses.”
Increasing internet penetration, mobile-first shopping habits, and the rise of social commerce are turning Morocco into an attractive hub for e-commerce innovation in North Africa. Industry data shows that online spending in the Moroccan e-commerce market exceeds $1.6 billion annually, with expectations of double-digit growth through 2027. Much of this momentum comes from young sellers and shopping trends driven by social media.
