In July 2018, Mediterrania Capital Partners invested in Travaux Généraux de Construction de Casablanca (TGCC), a Morocco-based construction company executing large projects that span residential, hospitality, commercial, industrial, administrative and infrastructure segments.

With Mediterrania’s support, TGCC developed a comprehensive workplace health and safety protocol covering employees, as well as stakeholders linked to construction sites such as subcontractors, customers and suppliers. Mediterrania also assisted TGCC in implementing policies to close the gender pay gap, including mentorship and management support systems for women employees. The company brought the representation of women in support departments like finance and human resources to roughly 50% and focused on hiring women in even more heavily male-dominated construction site positions.
