The objective of the railway cluster that Bombardier Transportation plans to establish in Morocco in collaboration with leading industrial suppliers is to supply the African market with railway equipment, as well as some European countries.

Bombardier Transportation made the announcement on Thursday during an event it organized in the headquarters of the Office of Industrial and Commercial Property (OMPIC) in Casablanca.

Taoufiq Boussaid, President of Bombardier Transportation Morocco, explained in a statement quoted in the French-language news source Le Matin:

“Ultimately, Bombardier’s ambition is to reach 40,000 square meters of industrial units, the creation of an engineering center in Casablanca, the creation of 600 direct jobs and technology transfer in this sector.”
