#9 Is the electric age a game changer for South Africa’s automotive industry?

  • Summary

  • The car industry is an important income generator for South Africa. As a side note, the first vehicles were manufactured there already in the 1920’s – almost a century ago. Back then, Ford and General Motors built assembly plants. So, there are already established supply chains within the country. Now the global auto industry is electrifying vehicles and batteries are needed everywhere. Being a country with rich mineral resources, could this be a once-in-a-lifetime chance for more and better jobs and increased prosperity? Moderator Nicolas Martin discussing with Justin Barnes executive director of TWIMS. Established by the Toyota Wessels Trust, TWIMS is a not for profit initiative dedicated to the development of manufacturing executives in Africa. https://twimsafrica.com/justin_barnes/
