Excerpted from the South Africa Career Guide


Engineers in South Africa had to be innovative in the design of technology because of the country’s isolation from the international community in its pre-democracy days. As a result, South African engineering efforts have developed leading technologies and skills across numerous industry and sectors, particularly energy and fuels and steel production. Observers believe that South Africa holds the promise of becoming a major manufacturing country in the global marketplace.

Food processing, the production of chemicals, iron and steel, metal products, and machinery dominate manufacturing. Other important sub-sectors include electric machinery, motor vehicles and motor vehicle parts, textiles, metalworking, and fertilizers, and the manufacture of wood and paper products is increasing.
