According to President and Chief Operating Officer Oscar Torres, “Our joining ALTA is part of a strategic initiative to further enhance our support capabilities for air transport operators in the regions represented by this vital, growing non-profit organization. We felt it a tremendous opportunity to become a part of ALTA as its charter is to coordinate the collaborative efforts of its members in order to facilitate the development of safer, more cost-efficient and environmentally friendly air transport in the Latin America and Caribbean region.”
Eduardo Iglesias, ALTA’s Executive Director, added, “ALTA is very excited to welcome Kellstrom Materials as the new member to join our roster of Affiliates. Aeronautical materials supply chain plays a very important role in the aviation industry and Kellstrom Materials is recognized as a leading company in that area. In the last decade, the Latin American and Caribbean region has experienced a significant growth in passengers and the increasing number of aircraft flying demands maintenance bases to be ready to sustain that growth. Kellstrom Materials supply chain solutions represent an important alternative to our airlines”.
