Morocco’s aviation industry is set to see its exports reach $4 billion by 2030, driven by growing demand from major global manufacturers such as Boeing and Airbus.
The increase was announced by Hamid Andalusi, head of the Midparc industrial zone, the kingdom’s largest dedicated aviation zone.
The sector recorded a 16.5% year-on-year increase in exports in the first half of this year, reaching $1.3 billion, making it Morocco’s leading export sector.
Morocco’s aviation industrial ecosystem includes around 145 companies, and the industry has seen growth over the past few years, supported by massive investments and ongoing upgrades.
Morocco has announced the creation of two new industrial zones dedicated to defense industries, with a budget of $12.6 billion allocated for this purpose.
The aviation industry in Morocco includes a wide range of products such as wings, doors and other metal parts, and the Moroccan company “Aerosion” is one of the most prominent companies that produces these components.
