The Netherlands: The New Cocaine Mafias (2023) poster

In recent years, the Netherlands and Belgium have become major drug trafficking hubs in Europe, with almost 80% of the continent's cocaine passing through Rotterdam or Antwerp. This has led to the rise of the “Mocro Mafia,” criminal networks of Dutch people of Moroccan origin. These gangs began by trafficking hashish from Morocco but now use the same routes for the more profitable cocaine trade, sourced from Latin American cartels. Consequently, the “Mocro Mafia” has become one of the world’s richest criminal organizations, generating an estimated fifty billion euros annually in Antwerp alone—10% of Belgium’s budget.
