Current Initiated Projects

Centurion Aerospace Village (CAV)

The CAV is a cluster supporting tier-level component manufacturers in the Aerospace Industry. CAV is still in its early development stage, but have already raised the interest of existing Tier 1 and 2 entities.

The CAV has been closely modeled on the success of the Automotive Supplier Park, and uses much of the same design methodology in ensuring logistic efficiencies, knowledge sharing, and manufacturing excellence.

CAV intends to establish itself as the front-runner in aerospace manufacturing within Africa. In addition, long-term plans include restoring South Africa to its OEM status [e.g. for light and small commercial aircraft], as well as developing a solid component manufacturing industry targeting the larger OEMs such as Boeing and Lockheed.

As the CAV is still in infant stage and investment opportunities are significant in establishing new manufacturing facilities, especially related to companies that are involved in aerospace development and the manufacturing of components
