Through this collaboration, MHIRJ will establish a new spare parts distribution center of over 110,000 square feet, providing ample space for our entire inventory and future expansion. The strategic location of the distribution center, which is only 15 miles away from the Dallas Fort Worth airport, makes it the perfect spot for global distribution of all our aircraft parts and components. The investment in this infrastructure is intended to maintain our superior service standards and cater to our customers' operational requirements,” emphasized Erick Legros, Senior Director, Distribution Network and Warehouse Transition.
