Safran is investing $330 million to help address supply chain challenges impacting Airbus A320 production.
The investment is aimed at strengthening manufacturing capacity and improving the availability of critical components used in the popular narrowbody aircraft family. Ongoing supply chain constraints have slowed aircraft deliveries across the aviation industry, affecting airline expansion plans.
By increasing production capabilities and supporting suppliers, Safran intends to help stabilize output and reduce bottlenecks. The move is expected to contribute to more consistent delivery timelines for Airbus.
The Airbus A320 family remains one of the world’s most in-demand aircraft types, widely used by airlines for short- and medium-haul routes. Ensuring steady production is crucial for meeting global fleet expansion requirements.
Safran’s investment reflects broader industry efforts to restore supply chain resilience and support rising demand for new aircraft.
