Since

members of GLOCENTRA LLC
have developed an extensive
network of contacts formed of clients, partners and
representatives of local and national governments
working toward developing trade relationship between
the United States, in particular California and
Morocco
as well as in other regions.
The United
States and Morocco reached agreement today on a
comprehensive and groundbreaking Free Trade Agreement (FTA
designed to strip away barriers and faci
litate
trade and investment between both countries. U.S. Trade
Representative Robert B. Zoellick and Moroccan
Minister-delegate of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation
Taib Fassi-Fihri made the joint announcement. (March 02,

As representative of the East Bay Center for
International Trade Development

cities:
El Jadida (his birthplace),
Rabat, Casablanca, Tangier, Fez (City of Dr. Cherkaoui's
Mother Family), Marrakech (the birthplace of Dr.
Cherkaoui's Father) and Agadir.
A second visit to Morocco was conducted by
Dr.
Cherkaoui (November 14 - December 12, 2006) which represented the second round
of the 2004 Trade Mission. As was the case for the initial trade mission,
the objectives were defined and extended by Dr. Garrett, the Director of the
