    Moufang loops are closer to groups than general loops and they share many common properties. In the paper of \textit{A. N. Grishkov} and \textit{A. V. Zavarnitsine} [Math. Proc. Camb. Philos. Soc. 139, No. 1, 41-57 (2005; Zbl 1091.20039)] the authors showed that Moufang loops satisfy Lagrange's theorem. However, Moufang loops are not groups in general. In this paper the authors study the properties of a class of Moufang loops which are not groups, but all their proper subloops and proper quotient loops are groups.
