C&L Aerospace, a subsidiary of the C&L Aviation Group, has inaugurated a new warehouse in Johannesburg, South Africa, slated to be fully operational by July 2024. Positioned strategically between Johannesburg’s two main airports, O. R. Tambo International Airport and Lanseria International Airport, this facility serves as a pivotal shipping hub for customers across the African region. Initially stocking inventories for ERJ 135/145 and ATR 42/72 aircraft, the warehouse will expand to accommodate other aircraft types as demand dictates.
“This new warehouse location allows us to more swiftly support our customers in Africa, which is a burgeoning market for us,” remarked Chris Kilgour, CEO of C&L Aviation Group. “This warehouse is yet another stride in a coordinated plan we have initiated to establish and provision distribution centres strategically around the world.”
In a bid to further enhance support for their global customer base, C&L’s expansion efforts for 2024 included the opening of two additional facilities earlier this year in Wichita, KS, and Leipzig, Germany. Additionally, C&L maintains warehouses in the United States, England, Scotland, and Australia.
