Joramco, the Amman-based aircraft MRO facility, has announced its ambitious expansion plans through a new agreement with Airport International Group (AIG), the organisation responsible for managing the rehabilitation, expansion and operation of Queen Alia International Airport. The agreement was signed on Wednesday, October 9, 2024, at Joramco’s premises in the presence of Her Excellency Wesam Al Tahtamouni, Minister of Transport, Nicolas Deviller, AIG Chief Executive Officer, Fraser Currie, Joramco Chief Executive Officer and other distinguished high-level officials.
This strategic partnership marks a significant milestone in Joramco’s growth trajectory, paving the way for the launch of its state-of-the-art Hangar 7, which is set to become operational by the end of 2024. The expansion is expected to have a positive impact on the local workforce in Jordan, reinforcing Joramco’s commitment to workforce development while also attracting global customers.
Fraser Currie, Chief Executive Officer of Joramco, commented: “We are thrilled to share our expansion plans, as it marks a major milestone in our journey. This strategic decision reflects our commitment to continued growth and reinforces our position as a trusted global MRO partner.”
The expansion project aims to enhance Queen Alia International Airport’s aircraft maintenance capabilities and increase the range of high-end services offered to airlines. In addition, the development is set to create hundreds of new job opportunities, contributing significantly to the local economy and solidifying QAIA’s position as a leading aviation hub in the region.
