Aircraft brokerage Par Avion is celebrating its 25th anniversary. The Houston, Texas-based company specialises in buying and selling bespoke preowned aircraft.

“Par Avion has always been committed to delivering unparalleled service. Our position as a go-to resource in the aircraft sales industry speaks to this," says founder and president Janine Iannarelli. "I have worked to build relationships and a company with a global presence on the time-honoured principles of honesty and integrity, all while providing an exceptional transactional experience. Par Avion has prevailed through numerous challenges, proving our longevity and relativity through the years.”

Par Avion was established in 1997 with a vision to offer more personalised, detail-oriented services to the business aviation community. Under Iannarelli's leadership, the company enjoys its place among a short list of globally recognised business aircraft brokerages. Par Avion is a long-standing member of the NBAA and the EBAA.

Rio Grande Pacific chairman and CEO Richard Bertel says: “For nearly two decades, Par Avion and Janine Iannarelli have been trusted and invaluable advisors and representatives for our corporate aircraft needs. Attention to detail, expert market analysis and tenacious advocacy in multiple transactions of increasingly sophisticated aircraft have allowed us to focus on our businesses.”

Iannarelli adds: “We are mindful of building a better future and embrace a continuing focus on the environment, social and corporate governance of our business. Our corporate culture from inception is one of inclusiveness and diversification while serving as good global citizens.”

Avfuel president and CEO Craig Sincock continues: “I offer a hearty congratulations to Janine Iannarelli on 25 years of success with Par Avion, achieved through consistent service, professionalism and industry knowledge. Her insight and tenacity has been influential to our industry. I look forward to following Par Avion's story in the succeeding years.”

Going forward, the company remains committed to its mission, core values and founding principles while continuing to evolve with the changing aviation landscape and the demands of a competitive business environment. It plans to continue to make a market in a select group of business jet aircraft and seeks to expand as needed to meet rising demand for its services.
