iFuel has expanded its local operations to include the CIS region. The Swiss-headquartered global aviation fuel broker is working on actively developing direct agreements with local fuel suppliers to provide even more benefits to its CIS-based clients.

When it launched, iFuel initially positioned itself as a company with global operations providing worldwide services. While the latter still holds true, it prefers a more local and hands-on approach to business. By conducting its business within reach of potential clients, it is able to present its customers with attractive prices.

By removing third-party brokers and creating new direct contracts with suppliers, iFuel enables its clients to enjoy lower prices on jet fuel. “Such an advancement made in these difficult times is an important achievement for us,” says Rinad El-Rabaa, founder and CEO. “Trying to expand in such an unsure market can be challenging, but our mission has always been to supply our clients in the most cost-efficient way, and we do not plan on standing down anytime soon.”
