Electroplanet

Electroplanet is a Moroccan retail company focused on home appliances, consumer electronics, and multimedia products. It operates as a subsidiary of Marjane Holding, one of Morocco’s major retail groups, and serves consumers through a nationwide network of specialist stores. The brand entered the market in November 2008, when it opened its first store in Marrakech. Its launch positioned Electroplanet within Morocco’s expanding organized retail sector, offering customers a dedicated destination for household equipment and electronic goods rather than relying solely on general merchandise retailers or smaller independent dealers. The company’s assortment covers broad appliance and electronics needs for the home. Its principal categories include household appliances, consumer electronics, and multimedia products. The available reference material does not identify specific proprietary product brands, exclusive product families, or a single flagship item; Electroplanet’s value proposition is therefore best understood as a broad multi-category retail format. Its positioning is mass-market and service-oriented, with the chain combining physical stores, product selection, and customer assistance. Electroplanet expanded progressively after its Marrakech opening. By 2020, it operated 32 stores in 16 Moroccan cities. The network continued to grow, reaching 41 stores by 2022, with the expansion including locations in Casablanca, Agadir, and Rabat. This geographic development strengthened the brand’s national reach and made its format available across several of Morocco’s principal urban markets. The company also developed an e-commerce channel. Electroplanet launched its online platform in 2018, adding a digital sales and product-discovery route alongside its store network. The digital channel became especially important during the COVID-19 pandemic, when changes in consumer behavior and restrictions affecting physical retail increased the importance of online shopping and remote customer engagement. The available sources do not provide detailed information about online sales, delivery coverage, platform technology, or subsequent digital revenue. Electroplanet’s operating model remains heavily dependent on customer-facing retail activity. In 2024, the company was reported to employ approximately 1,000 people, with more than 80% working directly in customer service and retail operations. This workforce profile is consistent with a store-led model in which product explanation, sales assistance, and after-sales interaction are important elements of the customer experience. The brand also received the Service Client de l’Année Maroc award in several years, including 2022, 2023, and 2024, indicating a continued emphasis on customer service recognition. The supplied reference material does not disclose Electroplanet’s founder, revenue, profitability, ownership percentages, executive team, or stock-market status. It also does not establish operations outside Morocco. On the available evidence, Electroplanet is an active Moroccan retail subsidiary within Marjane Holding, with a national store network, an e-commerce presence, and a mass-market positioning in appliances and electronics.

Electroplanet was established in Morocco in 2008 as a retail business specializing in household appliances, electronics, and multimedia products. Its first store opened in Marrakech in November of that year. The launch created a dedicated specialist retail format within a market that also included general merchandise chains, independent appliance dealers, and smaller electronics sellers. Electroplanet operated as part of Marjane Holding, linking the brand to one of Morocco’s largest retail groups. Following its launch, the company pursued geographic expansion through a network of stores in Moroccan urban markets. By 2020, Electroplanet had 32 stores distributed across 16 cities. The expansion continued through the early 2020s, and the chain reached 41 stores by 2022. The network included locations in major cities such as Casablanca, Agadir, and Rabat. This growth established Electroplanet as a nationwide rather than locally concentrated retailer, although the available sources do not provide a complete store-by-store history or identify all locations. The company’s retail offer has remained centered on three broad areas: home appliances, consumer electronics, and multimedia products. The supplied sources do not specify detailed product subcategories, individual brands, private-label ranges, or exclusive products. Electroplanet is therefore characterized primarily by its multi-category specialist format and its ability to bring a wide assortment of household and electronic goods together in dedicated stores. In 2018, Electroplanet launched an e-commerce platform. This marked an important extension of its retail model, allowing the brand to engage customers through a digital channel as well as through physical stores. The online operation became more strategically relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic, when restrictions and changes in shopping behavior accelerated the importance of e-commerce. No source supplied for this dossier quantifies the platform’s sales, customer base, delivery footprint, or contribution to the company’s business. People and service have also been significant parts of the company’s operating profile. In 2024, Electroplanet was reported to employ approximately 1,000 people, and more than 80% of its employees worked directly in customer service and retail operations. That composition suggests a store-led business in which product guidance, selling assistance, and customer interaction are central to the brand experience. The company received Service Client de l’Année Maroc recognition in 2022, 2023, and 2024, providing external recognition associated with its customer-service proposition. The available material does not identify Electroplanet’s founder, named executives, revenue, profit, ownership percentages, or any publicly traded security. It also does not document operations outside Morocco. On the available evidence, the company remains an active Moroccan subsidiary of Marjane Holding, combining a growing national store network with an e-commerce platform and a mass-market service orientation.

  Home appliances

  Electroplanet’s home-appliance category covers household equipment sold through its specialist Moroccan retail network. The available reference material identifies this as one of the company’s core business areas but does not provide a verified item-level assortment, proprietary range, or specific brands. The category is part of the chain’s broader mass-market proposition for outfitting and equipping homes.

  Consumer electronics

  Consumer electronics are a principal part of Electroplanet’s retail offer. The company brings electronic products together with appliances and multimedia goods in dedicated stores and through its e-commerce channel.
