What Doc'Archives does

Doc'Archives is a privately held Moroccan professional archive management company founded in 1998, operating from Bouskoura/Casablanca with a secondary site in Rabat and positioning itself as the largest archive center in Africa. The core offering spans four integrated services: physical archive storage in RFID-tracked containers, document digitization and electronic management via a proprietary in-house client portal, secure destruction (on-site and via Morocco's first DIN P4 mobile destruction truck with up to 1,800 kg/hour capacity), and exclusive distribution of Bruynzeel mobile shelving systems that can increase storage capacity by up to 48%. The anchor asset is a purpose-built 10,000 M2 facility in Casablanca (completed 2016) with 20-meter ceiling height and capacity for 1,000,000 containers, surrounded by multi-layer physical and electronic security (thermal cameras, intrusion detection, fire suppression, flood detectors, climate monitoring).

The company targets highly regulated, document-intensive enterprises across banking (BMCE Bank, BMCI/BNP Paribas), insurance (Saham), public administration, and manufacturing (Figeac-Aéro). It maintains ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 27001 (information security), and ISO 22301 (business continuity) certifications, and cites 30-40% document management cost reductions and document retrieval within 1 to 24 hours as client outcomes. Distribution is direct enterprise field sales with a consultative audit-and-design methodology; a secure web portal handles ongoing retrieval, inventory, and request management for existing clients.

Revenue is generated primarily through multi-year managed-service contracts for physical archive outsourcing, project-based professional services for digitization and secure destruction engagements, and hardware sale-and-installation revenue from Bruynzeel shelving projects. Pricing is quote-based, tailored to client volume and scope, and not publicly disclosed. The recorded strategic footprint since 1998 includes the 2016 Casablanca flagship build, the Rabat site, the mobile destruction truck launch, the in-house client portal deployment, and the exclusive Bruynzeel partnership, with stated geographic ambition covering Morocco and the wider African market.
