Initialed by RAM’s Regional Representative in Côte d’Ivoire Mohamed Babou and CCI-CI President Faman Touré, this partnership agreement aims to offer companies registered with the CCI-CI preferential fare reductions on airlines served by RAM, thereby facilitating their mobility and access to various international business opportunities.
This partnership is part of the solid and exemplary cooperation and partnership between the Kingdom of Morocco and Côte d’Ivoire in various fields, and illustrates the constant willingness of both countries to work towards further strengthening.
It also reflects the desire of the two signatory organizations to promote collaborative actions put in place to provide effective and concrete solutions in terms of mobility, for the benefit of Ivorian companies.
Speaking on the occasion, Babou explained that thanks to this partnership, all full members of the Chamber will have access to advantageous fares on the national airline’s routes, with reductions of up to 20%, reiterating the commitment of RAM teams to support CCI-CI members in optimizing their transport budgets.
Noting that in 2023 RAM carried some 7.5 million passengers, he emphasized that the Casablanca-Abidjan service, launched in 1984, had greatly contributed to bolstering the bonds of friendship and fraternity between the two countries.
Babou further pointed out that in July 2023, the company signed an ambitious contract-program with the Moroccan government, which provides for the transition to a fleet of 200 aircraft by 2037 and launching numerous air routes, notably in Africa and to strategic markets, noting that this development is accompanied by strengthening infrastructure and services.
For his part, the CCI-CI President praised the quality of the historic, economic and fraternal relations between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Republic of Côte d’Ivoire, two countries united by a common vision of South-South cooperation, based on solidarity, complementary and the shared ambition to make the private sector a driving force for sustainable development.
