Phosphate chemistry and Atlantic fishing have shaped the working port of Safi (MA SFI) in the Marrakech-Safi region of Morocco. The older harbour handles OCP Group phosphate and phosphoric-acid shipments and has long ranked among Morocco's leading sardine landing sites. About 15 km to the south, the New Port of Safi — operational since 2018 behind a roughly 2 km breakwater — imports coal for the adjacent thermal power station and exports phosphate fertilizer. Regular container-line service is not confirmed at Safi; shippers with boxed cargo typically use Jorf Lasfar or Casablanca instead. The hinterland is reached by rail from the phosphate deposits around Youssoufia and Benguérir and by national roads toward Marrakech.
