US company to build factory in Morocco

2006-12-17

US company Minco is due to build of a high-tech electronic components factory near Casablanca, the company's CEO Dana Schurr said Friday (December 15th). The $17.6m-project is expected to create 250 jobs and include a training programme, Schurr said. The production of the Moroccan facility will be focused on the world market, in particular France, the US and Asia.

Minco began fabricating thermal sensors in Morocco in September 2006, with a small team of 20 operators and 4 engineers in a factory provided by the Moroccan airports authority. (Le Matin, Jeunes du Maroc, MAP)
