To help spur aircraft purchases in China, Avion Pacific (Booth P218) has partnered with AirFinance to provide financing for buyers of general aviation aircraft and equipment.

AirFinance specializes in financing supported by export credit agencies such as the U.S. Ex-Im Bank, Export Development Canada, Switzerland’s SERV, and Poland’s KUKE. These government-backed organizations support domestic exports, according to AirFinance, and thus help create and maintain local jobs and generate income.

“We are excited to be partnering with AirFinance, a highly-regarded aircraft finance specialist,” said Avion Pacific founder and CEO Wu Zhendong. “Avion Pacific has a great network of manufacturers and suppliers, and this new relationship will further complement our role as a leading services provider in the Chinese general aviation space.”

Shenzhen-based Avion Pacific provides aircraft sales, brokerage, training, and aircraft management and has offices and operating bases in Hong Kong, Beijing Shanghai, and Chengdu.
