Boeing is expanding its presence in Morocco after a new agreement was signed with Casablanca Aéronautique, a subsidiary of France’s Figeac Aéro Group. Casablanca Aéronautique is set to manufacture machined parts for the 737 MAX. Emily Belgrade, Vice President of Global Supply Chain at Boeing Commercial Airplanes, told local media “This partnership speaks to our intent to help shape a solid aerospace ecosystem in Morocco.”.  With around 900 employees, Casablanca Aéronautique already provides end-to-end manufacturing production services, including everything from machining to final assembly.
