German business aviation services group Aero-Dienst has established a U.S. subsidiary in Palm Beach, Florida, focused on supplying spare parts, it announced this week at NBAA-BACE 2025.
In mid-2026, the new Aero-Dienst America subsidiary will expand its portfolio, and in the long-term this could extend to opening an MRO facility in the U.S. According to the group, services could include technical support for aircraft transactions, such as helping customers to disassemble valuable components for repair, recertification, and resale, as well as conducting pre-purchase inspections across North America.
“The foundation is now in place, and we are expanding our service portfolio step by step in response to customer needs,” Matthias Mößner, CEO of Aero-Dienst America, told AIN. While our immediate focus is on parts distribution, consulting, and specialized services such as aircraft detailing, the establishment of an MRO facility in the U.S. remains a strategic option for the future. We see potential for a high-quality, European-standard MRO operation in select U.S. markets as our client base continues to grow.”
While the German company continues to monitor issues around possible U.S. import tariffs, Aero-Dienst indicated that these are not the primary motivator for establishing the facility in Palm Beach. “Demand for quality spare parts continues to rise on both sides of the Atlantic,” Mößner explained. “Establishing a U.S. presence allows us to operate closer to the source, improve lead times, and achieve more competitive pricing for our customers worldwide.”
From its Nuremberg headquarters, Aero-Dienst provides MRO support for multiple aircraft and engine types, including Bombardier and Dassault Falcon business jets. In Europe, Aero-Dienst also has facilities at Oberpfaffenhofen near Munich, as well as at Vienna and Klagenfurt in Austria. Its German network also includes a component shop in Landsberg am Lech, which conducts repairs for operators in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
In May, it signed an agreement with Dallas-based Engine Assurance Program to provide engine and APU support for customers in Europe.
