TAM Aviação Executiva, a Brazil full service executive aviation company, has just achieved another incredible milestone. For the second year in a row, the company has won the award as Bell's largest sales representative in the world. The award was presented at a ceremony held yesterday in Dallas, Texas.
The achievement reinforces the success of the partnership between TAM Aviação Executiva and Bell in Brazil, which enables the entry of cutting-edge aircraft into the country, equipped with the most modern equipment in the sector. This achievement strengthens the rotary wing segment and places Brazil in a prominent position among helicopter buyers around the world.
Bell holds an important share of the national rotary wing market, and the number has been increasing year after year. The success can be credited to the models manufactured by it, which are very well accepted in the country, due to their characteristics that fully meet market demands and the meticulous work carried out by TAM AE, which covers 100% of the national territory.
"It is an honour to have this recognition once again, as it is the result of a solid partnership that we have maintained with Bell for a long time, almost 20 years, and which allows us to offer the national market, without a doubt, the best helicopters in the world . The demand for this type of aircraft in Brazil continues to grow, and today we are one of the countries with the largest fleet of helicopters on the planet. This is an extremely demanding market that recognises in Bell products valuable and essential attributes for operations," says Leonardo Fiuza, president of TAM AE. "In addition, this award attests to the quality of the work carried out by the TAM AE team, which works tirelessly to present solutions that adhere to each client's mission."
Among the helicopters sold by Bell in Brazil, the Bell 429, Bell 407 GXi and Bell 505 models stand out, the latter, an absolute success. It is worth mentioning that TAM AE is responsible for 10% of all orders for this model, which makes the country the second largest buyer of Bell 505 in the world, behind only the United States.
