Businesses on a Management Lease in Marrakech
A management lease (gérance libre) lets you operate an already-running business — café, restaurant, riad, guesthouse — without tying up the capital of a purchase. You pay a monthly royalty to the owner of the going concern and run it for your own account. Ideal to start fast, with an equipped and already-licensed venue.

Frequently asked questions
- What is a management lease (gérance libre)?
- The owner of a going concern entrusts its operation to a free manager, who runs it at their own risk for a royalty. Ownership of the business is not transferred. In Morocco it is governed by articles 152 to 158 of the Commercial Code.
- How does it differ from buying a business?
- With a management lease you rent the operation (monthly royalty) without buying the business: less capital, more flexibility. When buying (assignment) you become owner of the going concern (customers, lease, licence). A commercial lease, by contrast, covers only the walls.
- What guarantees and duties apply to the manager?
- The free manager has trader status and its obligations. Before signing, we verify the contract, the royalty, the condition of the equipment, the licences and the term with you — so you operate safely.
