SAFRAN

Safran is a global high‑technology industrial powerhouse in aviation, defense, and space, with around 100,000 employees and €27.3 billion in sales in 2024. Its mission is to contribute to a safer, more sustainable world by making air transport more environmentally friendly, comfortable, and accessible . Safran holds world- or regional-leading positions, including #1 globally in single‑aisle jet engines (via CFM International with GE), #1 in helicopter turbine engines, and #1 in landing gear .

Safran operates across four core business pillars: aerospace propulsion (aircraft and helicopter engines), aircraft equipment (landing gears, electric systems), defense & space, and aircraft interiors (cabins, seats). 

France plays a central role in Safran’s global operation. As the historical and industrial heartland of the Group, it is home to more than 46,000 employees spread across over 110 sites, making it by far the largest national presence within Safran.
