Boeing says Africa’s aircraft fleet could rise from 755 planes in 2025 to 1,625 by 2045, forecasting 1,165 deliveries from all manufacturers rather than Boeing orders. The outlook includes 870 single-aisle jets and 240 wide-bodies, as well as growth in passenger traffic of 6.5% annually in Africa and 7.1% on routes to the Middle East. Boeing estimates a $140 billion services opportunity and points to developing certified facilities and job capture, citing Ethiopia Airlines’ $12.5 billion airport project near Addis Ababa.

ABOUT

What is Fimmer?

Most feeds treat all company headlines the same. An executive interview, an office closure, stock analysis, and a data breach can sit side by side with no sense of scale. Fimmer ranks coverage by what matters, so important events stand out and signals are prioritised over noise. We cluster related company news and score each story using a range of metrics, so you see the most crucial stories first.

SCORING

What do the scores mean?

Significance (0–10) measures the scale of the real-world impact. Sentiment and ESG (−10 to +10) indicate the tone of the coverage and whether the change relates to environmental, social, or governance factors. Together, these scores help distinguish meaningful developments from routine company news. More information about our scoring methodology can be found on our About page.
