AERO Purchasing
and Supplier Network

AERO suppliers and partners are a key part of our shared success. A significant portion of the value of our products is created through close cooperation with external suppliers who participate in the development, manufacture, and delivery of components for the aviation industry.

AERO cooperates with a wide network of partners, and our purchasing activities are divided into two categories:

  • Direct purchasing
    Materials, structural parts, systems, equipment, and other components that form part of the final products.
  • Indirect purchasing
    Services, equipment, and materials that support the company's day-to-day operations.
