Stengg and SF Airlines to set up MRO JV in China
ST Engineering has announced that its commercial aerospace business and SF Airlines have entered an agreement to set up a commercial airframe maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) joint venture in Ezhou, Hubei, China.
The joint venture, subject to regulatory approvals, will operate a greenfield airframe MRO facility at the Ezhou Huahu Airport which is designated as Hubei’s international logistics hub airport.
With passenger and air cargo traffic growing steadily as China re-opens its flight connectivity, the JV will not only support the freighter MRO demands of SF Airlines, which is China’s largest freighter airline in fleet size, but also serve the increasing needs of other cargo and passenger airlines operating in the region.
