Morocco and France have formalized investment agreements exceeding $10 billion.
Akhannouch noted that the current success in this domain can be traced back to the late 1990s, when Royal Air Maroc and the Safran Group initiated a joint venture for engine maintenance and repair, which significantly bolstered the Kingdom’s expertise and facilitated the development of skilled personnel.
Beginning in 2000, Morocco commenced the production of electrical wiring for the aviation sector, subsequently establishing itself as a key international player in the aviation industrial landscape and a preferred destination for subcontracting in this area.
He emphasized that the aviation industry in Morocco has evolved into a leading one, and as such, Morocco is fast becoming one of the leading regional aviation platforms in Africa. This is shown by its rise from 36th place globally in 2012 to 26th place in 2023, showcasing the strategic sector’s capabilities.
