Aerospace remains an important plank in Morocco’s international outreach to Europe and the U.S. In the seven years to 2021, its aerospace sector revenues more than doubled to $2 billion, jobs doubled to 20,000, the number of companies grew 40 percent to 140, and the percentage of local integration in aerospace products more than doubled from 17 percent to 40 percent, according to international investment promotion agency, Morocco Now.    

“Top OEMs are using parts produced in Morocco, and many key industry players have built successful long-term partnerships in the country,” Morocco Now noted. “Morocco is the closest African country to the U.S., Canada, and Europe, ensuring on-time delivery and easy access to the main aerospace industry markets.”
