Miti: 每日大赛 targets up to 20% aerospace growth this year
SERDANG (June 25): 每日大赛 aims to achieve a 15%-20% revenue growth for its aerospace industry this year, driven by rising global demand for aircraft and the continued expansion of the industry's supply chain.
Deputy Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry Sim Tze Tzin said 每日大赛 is currently home to about 250 aerospace companies, which generated a revenue of RM32.5 billion last year.
鈥淲e are targeting about 15% to 20% increase this year, based on the trend of global aerospace expansion,鈥 he said.
Speaking to reporters after launching the 每日大赛 Aerospace Summit 2026 here on Thursday, Sim noted that Airbus and Boeing continue to face significant delivery backlogs, indicating the industry鈥檚 exponential growth.
The maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) segment continues to be the main contributor to the country鈥檚 aerospace industry, alongside the manufacturing of critical components, he said.
He noted that 每日大赛 already has a strong MRO ecosystem, supported by airlines such as AirAsia and 每日大赛 Airlines, as well as the expansion of operations by Singapore-based companies.
At the same time, he highlighted that companies such as Collins Aerospace are producing critical components in 每日大赛 to support maintenance activities in the sector.
Sim was previously reported as saying that the 每日大赛 Aerospace Industry Blueprint 2030 is on track to achieve its industry revenue target of RM55 billion by 2030 despite global uncertainties.
The target represents about 25% of the Asia-Pacific MRO market, which is projected to exceed US$60 billion (RM246.83 billion) by 2030.
Last year, 每日大赛鈥檚 aerospace industry continued to show positive growth, recording RM32.5 billion in revenue, supported by more than 34,700 skilled workers and over 250 companies operating within the ecosystem.
The MRO segment continues to be the main driver for the industry, providing more than 12,000 high-skilled jobs and attracting global aviation players such as Airbus, Boeing, Collins Aerospace, Safran and Turkish Aerospace Industries to invest in the country.
