In its drive to expand EFIS Maroc’s leading role and further emphasize Morocco’s position as a strategic cargo gateway linking Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, ECS Group has announced the appointment of Yousra Khalihamou as EFIS Maroc’s new Commercial Director. She has been with the company since 2018, quickly working her way up from Sales and Booking, becoming Supervisor in JAN24. During her time at EFIS, she developed extensive operational and commercial experience. Yousra managed the launch of 10 different airline customers, thus contributed directly to the station’s strong growth. Now, as Commercial Director, she will continue to bring on board new airline contracts as well as being responsible for the implementation of EFIS Maroc’s commercial strategy which focuses on three main areas. These include managing ongoing organizational changes, improving commercial results, and motivating the team to deliver higher performance. The goal is to accelerate EFIS Maroc’s growth and standing, also in collaboration with ECS Group’s international network and access to the latest in digital solutions.
Yousra Khalihamou said: “Being promoted to Commercial Director is an exciting new challenge. I’ve built my career step by step, from launching airlines to growing our market presence. My goal now is simple: drive better results, secure new contracts, and strengthen EFIS Maroc’s position as a top cargo gateway in the region.” On LinkedIn, she added: “It’s a significant sign of trust. I am excited to take on new challenges and to contribute even more to the success of EFIS Maroc by ECS Group.”
Jean Ceccaldi, Chief Executive Officer of ECS Group, commented: “Yousra represents exactly the kind of talent and determination we want to elevate within ECS Group. Her commercial instincts, her ability to win the confidence of international airlines, and her deep understanding of the Moroccan market make her the right leader at the right moment. EFIS Maroc is entering a new phase of growth, and with Yousra at the helm, we are confident the team will strengthen its position as a strategic hub for our airline partners across Africa and beyond.”
