Morocco will host the first business aviation fair in Africa in September, according to the Ministry of Equipment, Transport and Logistics on Monday.

This two-day international event is scheduled for Sept. 1-2 at the International Mohammed V airport in Casablanca.

It will bring together more than 50 companies and drain more foreign investment in aviation business, as it represents a platform of exchange between different stakeholders of this sector.

Morocco's National Airports Authority will provide the Middle East and North Africa Business Aviation Association with an exhibition space of 93,600 square meters for this to exhibit more than 25 aircraft.

With a growing interest and investment in the aviation industry in recent years, Morocco has attracted giants such as Boeing, Safran, United Technologies and Bombardier which have invested in factories in Morocco. Endit
