Ferrari drives supply chain for aircraft manufacturer
Deutsche Aircraft has officially named Patricia Ferrari as its new vice-president for the supply chain, following her tenure as interim vice-president since May 2024.
Ferrari will lead the company’s supply chain strategy, ensuring efficiency and sustainability as Deutsche Aircraft advances its D328eco programme.
Ferrari joined the company in 2022 and has played a key role in supplier on-boarding, cost reduction and performance optimisation. She previously held senior supply chain roles at Embraer, including as vice-president of supply chain management and managing director of the landing gear division.
“Our partners are crucial to our industrial setup,” said Nico Neumann, Co-CEO of Deutsche Aircraft. “Patricia’s leadership will be key in supporting the series assembly of the D328eco in Leipzig.” Ferrari added that “a strong network of reliable partners is essential as we advance regional aviation.” (ah)
