Valor Hospitality Announces Joint Venture in Morocco

ATLANTA, Ga. – November 16, 2021 –

Valor Hospitality Partners is delighted to announce the newest joint venture with Yamed Group to form Valor North & West Africa out of Casablanca, Morocco.

After the announcement of its reorganization, including the launch of two new businesses, Yamed Group is taking a first step in the implementation of its strategy with the creation of a joint venture in the hotel investment and management businesses with Valor Hospitality Partners. Relying on its expertise as a real estate asset manager, investor and independent and fully integrated real estate operator, Yamed Group aims through this partnership to create a regional platform operating in the hospitality sector, covering Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Senegal and Ivory Coast.

Valor is thrilled to bring our expertise to the North & West Africa region, and shares with Yamed Group the lofty goal to become the market leader in hospitality operations and management in Morocco and overall region. As Morocco is one of the continent’s leading tourist destinations, there is a massive opportunity for growth and restructuring how hotel brands and owners alike operate in the region.

This strategic partnership will allow international hotel brands to have a commercially attractive alternative to the traditional direct management structure, allowing them rapid development in new destinations, including franchise agreements, both faster to negotiate and close, and low capital with a low level of risk. Third party management may be new to the region, but working with our new partners at Yamed Group, Valor is up for the challenge to Reimagine Hospitality in North & West Africa.

 

 About Yamed Group:

Born in 2013 from a meeting between Karim Beqqali, a real estate investment professional who has worked in major international real estate groups in several European markets and in Morocco, and the late Arnaud de Ménibus, founder of Yam Invest – a European investment company who has to his credit the acquisition, recovery and sale of Cogedim (leader in investment and real estate development in France),  Yamed Group is the result of a common ambition to support the Moroccan real estate market in its development.

Creator of value for its customers, partners and ecosystem, Yamed Group covers through its business lines the entire value chain of the real estate industry, from asset management to property administration through real estate development, architecture, delegated project management and marketing. More recently, the Group has also diversified into the investment and management businesses in the hotel industry.

The Group relies in its activities on leading institutional partners and operates under the supervision of a Board of Directors composed of 80% of independent international members, all of whom have significant experience with world-class players in the real estate and finance professions.

Favouring a tailor-made approach adapted to the needs of its customers and partners, the alignment of interests is at the heart of the Group’s culture, which has notably built its development momentum on its ability to mobilize its own funds in the service of its direct investment activity alongside its co-investors in vehicles managed by its teams.
