# Top 46 companies with in-house R&D in Morocco

Tamtam tracks 46 companies with in-house R&D headquartered in Morocco. This list ranks all of them by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by OCP Group, SEBN-MA and HPS. Their median headcount is 598. Half of them were founded in 1995 or later. The most common headquarters are Casablanca (14) and Rabat (3).

These Moroccan companies with in-house R&D are primarily established firms in key industrial sectors. OCP Group, founded in 1920, specializes in phosphate-based fertilizers, while Groupe Managem, founded in 1930, focuses on mineral valorization. In the automotive sector, SEBN-MA (2001) supplies electrical wire harness systems, and Fujikura Automotive Morocco (2009) creates value with "Tsunagu" technologies. Construction is represented by Colas Afrique and SOGEA MAROC, founded in 1922. HPS, established in 1995, provides global payment solutions.

A notable pattern is the strong presence of companies in Casablanca, which serves as a major hub for various industries including mining, IT services, and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, the list includes several higher education institutions like UM6P - University Mohammed VI Polytechnic and Université Cadi Ayyad, indicating a focus on research and development within academia.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 11, 2026.
