World Summit of UCLG in Tangier: Morocco Affirms Its Territorial Leadership and Mecomar Establishes Itself as a Key Partner for Sustainable Cities

During the opening of the United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG) General Congress and World Leaders Summit in Tangier, Morocco reiterated its role as a diplomatic hub and a model for territorial development in Africa.
The official opening of the Congress is set for Tuesday, June 23, 2026, at 6:00 PM at Villa Harris in Tangier, with the presence of high-ranking Moroccan and African officials.
As local decision-makers from around the world gather to envision the cities of tomorrow, the management of public services, sustainability, and the circular economy are at the forefront of discussions.
In this national dynamic, the Moroccan company Mecomar stands out as a key industrial and service player supporting the ecological transformation of municipalities across the Kingdom.
The choice of Tangier as the host city for this global summit is not incidental; it reflects the advanced regionalization dynamic and significant urban modernization projects championed by His Majesty King Mohammed VI.
In the face of climate challenges and the demographic growth of Morocco’s cities, the capacity of territories to deliver efficient public services (waste management, sanitation, urban cleanliness) has become a major indicator of attractiveness and quality of life.

With its historical roots in the Moroccan industrial and environmental landscape, Mecomar perfectly embodies the alliance between technological performance and territorial proximity.
As a trusted partner of numerous municipalities and prefectures across the Kingdom, the company implements global solutions tailored to the socio-economic realities of each region:

– Modernization of cleaning services: Introduction of cutting-edge equipment and geolocation technologies to optimize daily urban service management.
– Circular economy and sustainability: Resource recovery and active engagement in reducing the carbon footprint of local communities.
– Creation of local jobs and inclusion: Valuing local human capital through ongoing training and improving the working conditions of field agents.
As UCLG sessions address urban resilience and local infrastructure financing, the public-private partnership (PPP) model advocated by Mecomar demonstrates that a strong synergy between national businesses and local elected officials is essential to building sustainable, inclusive cities ready to tackle the challenges of the global agenda.
According to Mecomar’s executives, “The ecological transition of our territories cannot happen without local, agile, and efficient industrial solutions. By supporting Moroccan municipalities in their environmental management, our ambition is to directly contribute to making our cities models of sustainability at both continental and international levels.”
