The combined revenue of Morocco’s nine wholesale distributors of gasoil and gasoline (excluding marine fuel) fell to MAD 18.91 billion ($1.89 billion) in the third quarter of 2025, according to the Competition Council.
The figure represents a 6.2% year-on-year decline from MAD 20.16 billion ($2.02 billion) recorded in Q3 2024, the Council said in its Q3 2025 monitoring report on commitments undertaken by fuel distributors under settlement agreements concluded with the regulator.
Despite the revenue contraction, sales volumes increased. The nine companies sold nearly 1.98 billion liters of gasoil and gasoline during the quarter, up 4.2% from 1.9 billion liters a year earlier.
Gasoil accounted for the dominant share of activity, representing around 84% of total volumes and 82% of sales value, the report noted.
On the market structure side, the number of companies holding licenses to distribute liquid petroleum products rose to 39 by end-September 2025, up from 38 at end-June, reflecting the entry of a new market player.
Retail distribution continues to be driven primarily by service stations, which accounted for an average 73% of total gasoil and gasoline sales volumes in Q3 2025.
The number of service stations nationwide increased from 3,617 at end-June 2025 to 3,663 at end-September, marking a net addition of 46 new stations.
Of the total, the nine distributors covered by the report operate 2,563 stations, equivalent to 70% of the market, up by one station compared to the previous quarter.
