Morocco’s aerospace industry is booming. With an annual growth rate of over 15%, it is a significant driving force behind the nation’s economy. This encouraging development is also fueling demand for local material suppliers and service providers. “This is a trend we identified early on, and we will be commissioning our highly modern materials processing and logistics center in Casablanca before the end of the year, so that we can supply our local customers with the required materials and services,” explains Patrick Marous, CEO thyssenkrupp Aerospace.
“It is not only the French aviation industry that is investing in Morocco and we are pleased to be able to show our presence there for our customers from France and to further expand our global partnerships there as well”, said Eric Cornilleau, Managing Director thyssenkrupp Aerospace France.
On around 3,500 m² (warehouse, production hall and offices) located in Ouled Salah area, between Casablanca downtown and the airport, up to 20 new jobs will be created to address customer wishes and requirements. Besides the storage of materials such as aluminum, steel and copper in various shapes and alloys, the center will also process materials. Modern machinery cuts the materials precisely to customer specifications for just-in-time delivery to the customer´s facilities.
