Embraer opened its new Commercial MRO facilities at the Perot Field Alliance Airport in Fort Worth, Texas. In partnership with the City of Fort Worth and the State of Texas, Embraer will begin operations in an existing hangar, while building a second hangar that is scheduled for completion in 2027.
With the new facilities, Embraer’s capacity to serve its customers is expected to increase considerably in the United States, with an increase of 53% across the country. The investment will reach up to $70 million and is expected to create approximately 250 new aviation jobs in Texas.
“We are excited to join Embraer in celebrating the launch of their expanded operations at Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport. Hillwood’s mission at AllianceTexas is to attract world-class companies while creating new jobs in our region – and Embraer is doing just that. Their phased expansion and investment in Fort Worth underscore the strength of our partnerships and Fort Worth’s standing as a center of aerospace excellence,” says Bill Burton, Executive Vice President for Hillwood.
“The opening of the new Embraer facility is just the latest example of how Fort Worth is the place to be to start, build, or expand a business,” said Robert Allen, President and CEO of the Fort Worth Economic Development Partnership.
The new Fort Worth service center is the 13th Embraer Owned Service Center, out of more than 80 Authorized Service Centers worldwide.
