Vessel owners, canneries and fish wholesalers in Laayoune
In the fishing sector, the figures change quickly. Trips depend on the sea and the season, fuel and maintenance weigh heavily, and sales can range from a local buyer to a foreign customer. For a business in this sector in Laayoune, the challenge is to follow these movements without spending all day on it, often far from an office.
m2m.ma brings your sales, expenses and bank together in one online workspace. You can reach it from your phone, in Laayoune or while travelling in the Laayoune-Sakia El Hamra region.
Record expenses from the field
Shipyard and provisioning invoices are easily lost. With the mobile app, you photograph each supplier invoice when you receive it: the supplier, ICE, date and amounts are suggested to you. You check them, choose the category and the document stays attached to the expense.
A vessel or a piece of long-lasting equipment is tracked separately, in the depreciation schedule, with useful lives to be confirmed by your accountant.
- Fuel, maintenance and repairs categorised
- Salaries, CNSS and AMO in ready-made categories
- Insurance, transport and delivery identified
- Monthly reports for a seasonal business
Invoice in Morocco and for export
A cannery or exporter may sell both locally and abroad. The choice is made invoice by invoice: under the Export scheme, VAT goes to 0%, the statement appears and the foreign customer is registered without an ICE. These sales appear separately in your reports. Keep your supporting documents, such as the customs declaration, in the Documents section.
By importing your bank statements, you see which transfers have been received and which invoices are still to be collected, even when a buyer pays in several instalments.
Read the season and prepare for the next
Monthly reports show income and expenses side by side. You can spot the months when costs exceed sales and prepare more calmly for periods with no activity. Your accountant, in Laayoune or elsewhere in the Laayoune-Sakia El Hamra region, can be invited to work on the same figures.
The fishing sector has particular rules and taxes, which depend on your activity. Have your accountant confirm the tax treatment of your sales and purchases. You can try the platform for 15 days with no payment method.
