Zalar Agri journey

Being a farmer means cultivating a land and taking care of it to give the best of the fruit but not only. It also means packaging, marketing and distributing and listening to nature to choose crops that are closer to the specificities of the soil according to the seasons. Since 1977, Zalar Agri has been cultivating its passion in Morocco by creating added value for its customers and partners.Today, thanks to the talents of its men and women, Zalar Agri Morocco is looking forward to the future with serenity around a shared business project to build together a responsible and sustainable agriculture of which we are proud.
