A marketplace concept connecting skilled tradespeople (maalems) with clients seeking quality craftsmanship — preserving traditional Moroccan artisan skills while creating modern income opportunities.
Morocco has a rich tradition of skilled craftsmanship, but many artisans lack access to consistent clientele and modern business tools. Maalam aims to bridge this gap by creating a trusted platform where clients can find verified craftspeople and artisans can build sustainable practices.
Maalam is in the ideation phase — market research is being conducted, potential business models are being evaluated, and conversations with tradespeople are informing the service design. No commitment to launch has been made; the concept will be validated before resources are committed.
