Embraer has concluded an official visit to Morocco to evaluate the country’s aerospace supply chain, following a recent memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed between the Moroccan Government and Embraer to explore potential collaborative projects.
Embraer sees considerable opportunities for business and industrial collaboration, as both Brazil and the Kingdom of Morocco share a strong commitment to deepening cooperation and investment. These opportunities extend across commercial aviation, defence, and urban air mobility.
“Morocco has a fast-emerging aerospace industry, and we’ve identified key suppliers with potential to be integrated into our global supply chain,” said Roberto Chaves, Executive Vice-President of Global Procurement and Supply Chain at Embraer. “We believe there are opportunities to bring mutual benefits, both in the short and long term, through innovation and economic growth in both countries.”
Embraer has chosen Morocco as a key regional partner in building a robust supply chain programme. The country’s aerospace sector has demonstrated solid capabilities in areas such as aerostructures, machining, sheet metal work, and composites.
The cooperation may also involve training programmes, MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) capabilities, and other areas of potential collaboration, such as research and technology.
