Imports have expanded steadily for six consecutive years. Since 2019, Morocco's pistachio imports have increased 11.5-fold, with an average annual growth rate of about 50 per cent over the period.

The United States remained the main supplier to the Moroccan market in 2025, accounting for 92 per cent of total imports. Turkey ranked as the second-largest supplier after increasing shipments 3.5 times compared with the previous year. Iran accounted for 2.2 per cent of total pistachio imports.
Rising consumer demand and reliance on foreign supply have led Moroccan authorities to focus on expanding domestic pistachio cultivation. Under the national Generation Green 2020–2030 strategy, pistachios have been identified as a crop for agricultural diversification in arid regions.
