  • Developing an Eastern Cape Auto Sector Strategy
    DEVELOPING AN EASTERN CAPE AUTO SECTOR STRATEGY A REPORT FOR THE EASTERN CAPE SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONSULTATIVE COUNCIL prepared by: Ian Russell This Report has been prepared at the request of the ECSECC, and is intended only for this purpose. March 2006 1 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this report is: • To describe and analyse the historical performance of the Automotive sector of the Eastern Cape economy and to identify current trends • To identify its growth and labour absorption potential • To identify key constraints or blockages • To identify key infrastructural blockages and constraints and to make recommendations on how Government and stakeholders can address the constraints / blockages in a more systematic and pragmatic way A significant amount of space is devoted to the global industry, its relationships and the inter-relationships between vehicle manufacturers (OEMs) and component suppliers. This has been done because the investment decisions internationally, and this is equally applicable to South Africa, are increasingly being driven by global considerations. These decisions are often, in turn, motivated by OEMs, with the appropriate supplier investments following. Further, the significant rationalisation taking place globally is resulting in a reduction in the number of OEMs, suppliers and model platforms, each of which will have repercussions in all automotive-producing countries. A proper understanding of these complex global trends is essential background to any approach to OEMs or component suppliers for investment. It is important, therefore, to realise that in attracting new investment to a country or a region, it is unlikely that a component supplier will set up a manufacturing base without prior assurance of OEM business, at least in the local market or for export volumes.
