Rising Diesel Prices in Morocco: Impact on Motorists and Service Station Owners

2023-09-30 15:49:00

The price of diesel will increase from Sunday while that of gasoline will remain stable. According to data from Le Site info, the cost of a liter of diesel will increase by 45 cents and will thus cross the threshold of 14 dirhams.

Note that fuel prices have seen numerous increases since the beginning of August, which has angered motorists.

In this regard, Jamal Zrikem had indicated, for his part, that the owners of the service stations have absolutely nothing to do, directly or indirectly, with the prices of diesel and gasoline.

Zrikem also affirmed that owners are the most affected by these increases, knowing that the costs inherent to fuels are increasingly high, with no notable change in their modest profit margin, whether prices fall or rise.

And to emphasize that the Federation has sent correspondence, on numerous occasions, to the Competition Council, calling on it to intervene by implementing its legal prerogatives on this subject. Just as the delay in the adoption of texts concerning the hydrocarbons sector contributes little to the ambient anarchy experienced by the sector, deplored Zrikem.
