%X 1577 food samples belong to different categories were collected from different points of sales in the F¨¦s-Boulemane region (F¨¦s Prefecture and My Yacoub Province) located in central north of Morocco. Of their microbiological quality, it appears that the majority of samples coming from the F¨¦s prefecture (77.50%) had a percentage of nonconformity of 75.10%, while that of samples My Yacoub province is on the order of 24.90%. The rate of non-conformity varies from one product to another. It is 68.50% for dairy products, 59.50% for meat products, 58% for beverages and soft drinks, 33.30% for fishery products, 32.70% for plant products, 15.10% for pastry and pastry cream, 13.70% for meals and 4% for egg products. Some foods are of good hygiene quality, especially canned and semi-preserved with a percentage of non-conformity of 0.00%. We also noted that the main causes of non-conformity of foods are the germs of fecal contamination with a percentage of positivity of total coliform of 30.90% and 26.20% of fecal coliform. Overall, the percentage of non-conformity during the period 2003-2006 was 34.90%. This percentage was a sharp decrease from 40.30% in 2003 to 28.30% in 2006. However, non-conformity continues to witness an increase during the summer season. It is therefore necessary to improve the hygienic quality of these foods to ensure better consumers¡¯ safety.
