JSSI Parts & Leasing Plans Florida Warehouse

JSSI Parts & Leasing plans to open an aircraft parts warehouse in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to attend to what the company said is a growing business aviation market. Through the new warehouse, the unit of Jet Support Services—an independent provider of all-OEM maintenance support and financial services to business aviation—will offer more efficient, cost-effective, and quicker aircraft parts procurement to operators and maintenance facilities in the area.

“We are excited to open our first satellite location to support our valued customers in the rapidly expanding South Florida corridor, where we’ve seen increasingly strong demand for parts,” said JSSI Parts & Leasing president Ben Hockenberg.

The company has also hired Eric Callahan for parts sales in the Southeast, including Florida. “The new warehouse provides a convenient base for us to establish partnerships with key operators in this high-growth area,” Callahan said.

Serving about 20 percent of the global business jet fleet, JSSI’s three warehouses have an inventory of 50,000 parts that support 80 percent of airframes and 90 percent of engines.
