The S.A. des Chantiers aéronavals Étienne Romano (CAER) was an aircraft manufacturing company based in Cannes, France.
[1] The predecessor company, Chantiers aéronavals de la Méditerranée had been founded by Étienne Romano in 1921.
The factory was ideally located between the Mediterranean Sea and a flat expanse of grassland where the planes could take-off and land.
In 1931 the Romano factory became operational and full production started.
[1] On 11 August 1936 the Romano company was nationalized[3] following which in 1937 it was merged with Lioré et Olivier, Potez, CAMS and SPCA in order to form the Société nationale des constructions aéronautiques du Sud-Est (SNCASE) on 1 February 1937.
