ExecuJet back in business for African acquisitions
ExecuJet's African team supports its clients by identifying aircraft, offering independent assessments, market intelligence, negotiating of prices, pre-purchase checks, training, ongoing management and charter options.
Gavin Kiggen says clients are looking to upgrade.

ExecuJet Africa, part of the Luxaviation Group, has reinstated its aircraft sales and acquisitions offering following an increase in demand from current clients.

VP Gavin Kiggen says: “After a challenging 2020, we're very excited to be back in the sales business and able to provide our clients with support and expertise in aircraft sales and acquisitions. We had an immediate positive response to our return, and we are already engaged in acquisition conversations with potential new owners from around the world. Our experienced team and global footprint mean we have been able to respond to the uptick in enquiries successfully. We can provide our clients with the very best inventory and support them from start to finish, whether it be their first aircraft or an upgrade.”

ExecuJet's sales team in Africa has more than 50 years' combined experience in business aviation. The team supports its clients by identifying aircraft, offering independent assessments, market intelligence, negotiating of prices, pre-purchase checks, training, ongoing management and charter options.

Leveraging the Luxaviation Group's global footprint, clients have access to aircraft that have not yet reached the market, enabling a greater array of inventory and prices to select from.

Kiggen continues: “Our current clients are looking to either upgrade or find a newer type. We are dealing with a broad range of aircraft, from turboprops through to long-haul aircraft such as Bombardier Global 6000. Some clients need to travel at short notice within their own region, while others are looking for aircraft that will safely take them further afield with their family bubble. We look forward to helping new customers in 2021 with their aircraft.”
