In this respect, Marrakech's CRT plans to put in place, in the course of the year, other partnerships which are likely to contribute to the development of the product's niches which generate high income such as golf, ecotourism or else business tourism.

Concerning the convention concluded between the CRT and the Council of Marrakech-Tensift-Al-Haouz region, it is centred on the promotion of regional tourism, the putting in place of a regional development plan (PDR) and the promotion of the back country of the ochre city.

With a global cost of the order of 3 million DH, this convention is supposed to last one year (one-year convention).

The second partnership convention concluded by the CRT, in consultation with the ONMT, is also about the promotion of regional tourism and entertainment in the town, and that is all thanks to a budget in the order of 8 million DH, including 3,5 million DH devoted to the festivals.
