Our Concept

Bazaar M was created with the goal of sourcing bespoke, high-quality Moroccan handicrafts through a personalized and transparent process.

Rather than offering standardized selections, we work directly with carefully selected artisans and cooperatives across Morocco to find pieces tailored to your specific needs — whether defined by style, dimensions, materials, color palette, weaving tradition, or particular preferences.

A Step-by-Step, Transparent Process

From the moment you share your interest, you are involved at every stage of the process:

  • You present your ideas, references, or specific needs.
  • We identify the most suitable artisans or cooperatives known for the requested craft.
  • We source and propose options, providing detailed photos, specifications, materials, and finishes.
  • We review, refine, and adjust selections together until the right pieces are confirmed.
  • Once finalized, you receive a clear and comprehensive quotation, including preparation, packaging, and international shipping.
  • Upon approval and secure payment, we oversee quality control, coordination, careful packaging, and shipping, keeping you informed until the items are ready to be dispatched.

This collaborative approach ensures clarity and confidence throughout the journey, offering direct access to genuine Moroccan craftsmanship, responsibly sourced and delivered with care, transparency, and reliability.

Bazaar M was founded in 2011 by Hicham Akbour. With his background as a tour manager, Hicham is quite familiar with the various and distinct regions of Morocco, as well as the quality of the Moroccan handicrafts.

Note from the Founder

Hicham Akbour

"I founded Bazaar M after more than 20 years as a licensed tour guide in Morocco, a role that allowed me to experience the country in depth and over time, beyond the obvious routes and familiar narratives.

Traveling extensively across Morocco — from the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara, from coastal towns to historic cities — I developed a deep understanding of what each region naturally excels in. This understanding extends beyond craftsmanship to materials and products that have long been part of local traditions, valued for their purity and provenance...

...Years of close interaction with artisans, cooperatives, and local communities sharpened my eye for detail, proportion, materials, and finish. They also shaped a way of working that values discretion, consistency, and respect for process as much as the final result.

Bazaar M emerged from this perspective. Each request is approached with care and precision, allowing time for dialogue, selection, and refinement. My role is to accompany each project from its earliest stages through final coordination, ensuring that every piece or product is sourced with intention, integrity, and a quiet sense of quality."
