National Museums Foundation to Transport Artwork in Renault Van

Renault donated a van to Morocco's FNM to reduce the cost of transporting works of art.




The president of the National Museum Foundation (FNM), Mehdi Qotbi, and the managing director of the Renault Maroc group, Marc Nassif, signed a donation agreement on Monday in Rabat.
The deal will link Renault to the various museums affiliated with the foundation in Morocco. According to the deal, Renault will donate a specially-equipped van to FNMto transport artwork safely.
In a statement to the press, Qotbi said he was happy to see FNM partner with the private sector. He added that many companies had already partnered with FNM.

The Renault Kangoo van will help to reduce the cost of transporting works of art within the kingdom, Qotbi said.

Nassif said it was a “great day” since this agreement seals a partnership that began several months ago. The partnership began when Renault brought children from orphanages in Tangier and Casablanca to visit the Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Rabat.
