Canada-based business aviation support services leader ACASS and Italy-based Piaggio Aerospace have formed a relationship to market and sell Piaggio Aerospace's P180 Avanti EVO twin turboprop in Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa and Indonesia.
“Our aircraft has a tremendous potential in countries where the Avanti EVO has not been marketed,” says Andrea Di Fede, Piaggio head of aircraft sales. “With its regional expertise and well-connected sales team, ACASS is the perfect partner to help us capitalise on this opportunity.”
ACASS has sold major OEM business jets to and established strong relationships with high-profile business aviation clients throughout Africa and southeast Asia. The new relationship with Piaggio Aerospace gives the company a chance to expand its regional sales portfolio.
“The P180 Avanti EVO is well known for its jet-like performances and it is a remarkably efficient, versatile and reliable aircraft,” says Carlo Vissani, ACASS managing director San Marino. “We are excited to be able to introduce it to our clients and contacts in countries where the Piaggio P180 Avanti EVO has a significant market potential. I am confident we will be able to generate significant interest and sales results.”
