Web Manuals has expanded its global presence with a 40% increase in its customer base across Africa since January. It says 43% of the African organisations joining the Web Manuals' community are airlines, closely followed by business jet operators, then flight schools.

Paul Sandström, chief revenue officer and director of operations EMEA, Web Manuals, says: “We have been serving the African market since 2015, but over the past year we have seen a huge increase in demand for our services across the continent. It is clear to see that more operators are ready to take their document digitisation to the next level and there is huge potential for Web Manuals to support all segments of the aviation industry.

“As borders begin to reopen we want our customers to feel confident that they can direct their time and energy into optimising the travel restart, without the additional burden of having to update all their documents manually.”

Web Manuals says it now has more than 380 customers around the world and in August strengthened its Asia presence by opening a new office in Singapore.
