Casablanca is preparing to host the thirteenth edition of the international exhibition for subcontracting and industrial partnerships, SISTEP INDUSTRIEL 2025, from December 3 to 6 at the International Exhibition Center in Casablanca (OFEC). This event is organized under the auspices of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and by the Federation of Metallurgical, Mechanical, and Electromechanical Industries (FIMME).
The exhibition takes place in a global context marked by unprecedented transformations in supply chains, while Morocco steadily advances towards enhancing its industrial sovereignty, localizing strategic industries, and improving its competitiveness by promoting innovation, partnerships, technology transfer, and establishing an industrial ecosystem capable of facing international fluctuations.
Abdel Hamid Souiri, the president of the federation, affirmed that Morocco currently has a strong industrial base that simply requires further technological development and effective partnerships. He considers the exhibition a crucial mechanism for achieving this ambition and reinforcing the Kingdom’s position as a regional and continental industrial hub.
The exhibition will feature participation from over 120 exhibitors from various African countries and others, paving the way for marketing Moroccan industrial innovations, encouraging technical and scientific exchanges, and building new cooperation bridges in sectors including metallurgy, mechanics, electromechanics, industrial safety, research, innovation, and supporting startups. The event will also host intellectual seminars and direct business-to-business (B2B) meetings, along with practical demonstrations aimed at attracting investment and launching new industrial projects.
This edition’s program will focus on discussions surrounding the role of metallurgy, mechanics, and electromechanics in the national industrial ecosystem, industrial safety, risk management, and enhancing innovation through a dedicated space for advanced technologies and applied research. Organizing this industrial event aligns with the directives of the new development model, which positions industry as a fundamental pillar for achieving economic development and sovereignty. FIMME comprises fifteen professional associations representing various industrial branches, and Global Fairs & Events has been tasked with organizing this edition.
