Febo expands market share in Morocco by acquiring F Negoce!

The Italian group Febo, specialized in the distribution of thermoplastic resins, has taken a significant step towards expansion. On May 28, 2025, it was announced that Febo had acquired a minority stake in F Negoce Sarlau in Casablanca, Morocco. This was done by PlasticWeb reported. F Negoce, which focuses on the distribution of plastics and color pigments, is now jointly managed with Moroccan entrepreneur Zaina Dbah and managing director Mohamed Faouzi, who continue to hold shares.

The financial details of the transaction were not disclosed. Nevertheless, the newly created partnership between Febo and Zaina Dbah represents a central part of Febo's expansion strategy. With this acquisition, F Negoce will receive a tripartite ownership structure that is geared towards future growth, says 7News.

Strategic importance of market entry

Febo, led by Giuseppe Carocchi, is currently only active in Italy and Greece, where the company operates eight warehouse and distribution centers. The entry into the Moroccan market takes place in an environment that is strongly influenced by demand in the construction, manufacturing and food industries. This could not only strengthen F Negoce, but also bring about an improvement in logistics and supply chain for the company, which could further consolidate its position in the growing market.

Febo's product portfolio includes a wide range of plastics, including standard polymers such as polyethylene and polypropylene as well as engineering thermoplastics. Last year the company achieved sales of around EUR 300 million, most of which came from the distribution of these products.

Market development in Germany

Statista hat die deutsche Kunststoffindustrie im Jahr 2021 einen Gesamtumsatz von knapp 85 Milliarden Euro erzielt. Diese Branche umfasst eine Vielzahl von Unternehmen, von kunststoffverarbeitenden bis hin zu Recyclingunternehmen, und ist führend in Produktion, Forschung und Entwicklung von Kunststoffen.

The main areas of application in which plastics are used range from packaging to the construction industry to the automotive and electronics industries. Therefore, Febo's expansion to Morocco is not only an opportunity for the company itself, but could also significantly strengthen the integration options of local distributors into global networks.

Overall, it can be said that Febo's move into the Moroccan market is part of a comprehensive strategy for expansion in North Africa. The focus on local partnerships and strengthening supply chains could prove to be key factors for the group's future success.
