Embraer has named the Barbedos Group as its executive jets authorised sales representative for West Africa, the company said this afternoon.
Based at Kaduna airport in Nigeria, the group operates a Legacy 600, and is marketing Embraer's entire line of executive jets in Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Nigeria and Senegal.
"Our joint expectations for the African market are encouraging," said Colin Steven, Embraer's vice-president, marketing and sales, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. "The Phenom 300, Legacy 600 and Legacy 650 are already in operation on the continent. We are confident that the Barbedos Group will assist us in further increasing our presence in the region."
