Gulfstream Names Grupo Aeronáutico as Sales Representative in Ecuador and Peru

Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. appoints Grupo Aeronáutico as the authorized international sales representative for Gulfstream business-aircraft sales in Ecuador and Peru. Under the agreement, Grupo Aeronáutico will be responsible for promoting and supporting Gulfstream with customers and prospects throughout the two countries.

“Gulfstream continues to see the potential for significant growth opportunities in South America, especially in Ecuador and Peru,” says Scott Neal, senior vice president, Worldwide Sales, Gulfstream. “Adding Grupo Aeronáutico to our representative network will allow Gulfstream to further capitalize on the increasing interest in our full range of aircraft in these two countries.”

Grupo Aeronáutico has a business presence in aviation markets throughout Latin America and has solidified its reputation through the provision of strategic advice, market research, fleet planning, aircraft operations and management, as well as the execution of landmark transactions in the region.

“Our relationship with Gulfstream will help continue to grow Gulfstream’s presence in the Ecuadorian market,” says Jimmy Ballesteros, director for Ecuador at Grupo Aeronáutico. “Gulfstream is one of the world’s premier brands, and with the recent introduction of the Gulfstream G400 and Gulfstream G800, the company now offers the strongest and most advanced fleet in its history.”

“Gulfstream already has a significant presence in Peru in both the super-midsize and large-cabin segments,” says Juan Pablo Chirinos, director for Peru at Grupo Aeronáutico. “The company is continually setting new standards for safety, performance, innovation and comfort, and we look forward to continuing to grow their presence even further.”

Grupo Aeronáutico will work closely with Pedro Ruiz, Gulfstream’s regional vice president of Sales for South America, and Brent Monroe, Gulfstream’s regional senior vice president of Sales for the Western U.S. and Latin America.
