Textron Aviation has broken ground on its 180,000 ft² expansion to its parts distribution facility. As announced during NBAA-BACE, the project will allow the company to better support customers who own and operate Cessna, Beechcraft and Hawker products.
This expansion will provide additional space for warehouse storage, customer support analysts and offices. The expansion will also enable Textron Aviation to make it easier for customers to conduct business with the company, including a dedicated lane for customers to drop-off or pick-up parts in person and opportunities for consolidated shipments. The expanded operations will also provide expedited support to the company’s own Wichita Service Centre.
“As we continue to invest in our product line-up, it is important that we also invest in our aftermarket business,” said Ron Draper, President and CEO. “We remain dedicated to our customers beyond their delivery, we support them throughout the life of their aircraft.”
