Morocco has retained its position as Spain's leading supplier of fresh fruits and vegetables by value during the first four months of 2026, with exports reaching €710 million. This represents a 5.6% increase compared to the same period in 2025, according to data from Spanish customs and trade sources.
The growth is attributed to strong demand for Moroccan produce, including tomatoes, peppers, and berries, which benefit from favorable growing conditions and proximity to the Spanish market. Spain is a major hub for fruit and vegetable distribution in Europe, and Moroccan imports play a key role in meeting consumer demand, especially during the winter and early spring months.
Morocco has consistently been among the top suppliers of fresh produce to Spain, competing with other Mediterranean countries. The increase in exports underscores the strengthening trade ties between the two nations, despite occasional tensions over agricultural competition and water usage in the region.
The data covers January to April 2026, a period that typically sees high volumes of Moroccan produce entering the Spanish market. No significant disruptions or policy changes have been reported that would alter this trade flow.
