Nine Countries Collaborate Globally to Supply Boeing 787 Dreamliner Structural Parts
The Boeing 787 is assembled in the United States, but the aircraft that rolls out of Boeing's factory in Everett or North Charleston is built from structural components manufactured across nine countries on four continents. Boeing distributed more of the 787's design and production to international suppliers than on any previous commercial aircraft program, creating a global supply chain involving more than 50 major companies that ship completed fuselage sections, wings, and tail components to the US for final assembly.
