The story

Founded by Hassan I of Morocco in 1892.1

Modern postal reform in Morocco accelerated in the late 1990s. The former Office national des postes et télécommunications (ONPT), which had combined postal and telecommunications functions, was restructured after the adoption of Law 24-96. That reform created Barid Al-Maghrib as the public postal operator and separated it institutionally from the telecommunications sector.

World Bank documents from the early 2000s describe the reform as part of a broader overhaul of the postal sector, intended to define universal service obligations, introduce a clearer regulatory framework and prepare the operator for a more competitive environment.

In 2010, Barid Al-Maghrib was transformed into a joint-stock company fully owned by the state. This change came with a wider reorganization of the group and with the creation of Al Barid Bank, which took over the postal operator’s financial services business.
