Product Information

The success of the argan co-operatives has also encouraged other producers of agricultural products to adopt the co-operative model. [20] The establishment of the co-operatives has been aided by support from within Morocco, notably the Foundation Mohamed VI pour la Recherche et la Sauvegarde de l’Arganier (Mohammed VI Foundation for Research and Protection of the Argan Tree), [21] and from international organisations, including Canada's International Development Research Centre and the European Commission.
