In celebration of its 10-year anniversary and to demonstrate its commitment to its mission of transforming the pre-owned helicopter market, helicopter distributor Rotortrade has broken ground on its second office in the US and its first hangar at Treasure Coast International airport in Fort Pierce.

The new facility, adjacent to runway 32, features a hangar and office space of 10,000 sq ft. Designed to accommodate the regional Rotortrade-owned or exclusive inventory, the hangar has enough space for customers to land their aircraft and the capability to perform in-house tear downs.

Chris Mash has been appointed as sales manager for Florida, Puerto Rico and Bahamas. He will be based in the new facilities and will be responsible for growing and developing the company's customer base in the region.

“This investment is the first hangar of Rotortrade and underscores our commitment to exceed customer expectations by further strengthening our global presence," says president Philippe Lubrano. "I would like to take this opportunity to welcome Chris Mash to the team. His knowledge, experience and network in the region will be of great importance for Rotortrade but most importantly, his customer focus. We always put the customers at the heart of everything we do.”

Rotortrade has offices in Florida, Kuala Lumpur, London, Los Angeles, Melbourne, Mexico City, Marseille, Paris, Singapore, Sarajevo, Shanghai and Verona, and is pursuing developments in new territories.
