Following rumors in the Moroccan press in recent months, Pratt & Whitney confirmed Tuesday during the Paris Airshow it will launch an affiliate, Pratt & Whitney Maroc (PWM), in Casablanca to manufacture detailed static and structural machined parts for various engine models.

"Morocco offers many benefits for aerospace manufacturing,” said Maria Della Posta, president of Pratt & Whitney Canada. "The growing aerospace community in Casablanca ensures a highly valuable talent pool, a positive economic environment, and the support from Morocco's government."
