Turkish aerospace investment in Tunisia

Overview

Aksa Kompozit, a subsidiary of the Turkish Akkök Holding group, has announced a $5 million investment to establish an advanced composite manufacturing facility in Tunisia. Located at the Borj Cedria Technopole, the new entity, Aksa Tunisie Aéronautique, will occupy approximately 3,000 square meters of indoor space.

The facility will focus on producing advanced composite parts, molds, and assembly for the aerospace sector, with additional capabilities for metal machining, heat treatment, and surface treatment.
