Embraer held a groundbreaking ceremony today to mark the start of construction on its new Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) facility for commercial jets at Perot Field Alliance Airport in Fort Worth.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The event brought together local officials, Embraer executives, and representatives from partner organizations.<\/p>\n

This new, state-of-the-art hangar is scheduled for opening by 2027. With the expanded infrastructure, Embraer\u2019s capacity to serve E-Jets customers in the United States will grow by 53%. The investment \u2013 expected to reach up to $70 million \u2013 is expected to create approximately 250 new skilled aviation jobs in Texas. In collaboration with the City of Fort Worth, Denton County, and the State of Texas, Embraer began operations at Alliance Airport in June at an existing hangar.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are honored to be here in Fort Worth, Texas \u2013 a city that represents innovation, resilience, and opportunity \u2013 to celebrate the groundbreaking of our new Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul facility at Perot Field Alliance Airport. This moment marks a new chapter in Embraer\u2019s journey in the United States, a country where we\u2019ve been for over 46 years. With an investment of up to $70 million and the creation of 250 new skilled aviation jobs, this facility is a symbol of our long-term commitment to the U.S. market,\u201d said Francisco Gomes Neto, President and CEO of Embraer.<\/p>\n

\u201cEmbraer\u2019s investment represents the kind of partnership that defines Perot Field Alliance and North Texas,\u201d said Ross Perot Jr., Chairman, Hillwood. \u201cBy aligning industry, government, and education around innovation, we\u2019re building the infrastructure and talent base that will sustain the region\u2019s aviation leadership for decades to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cToday\u2019s groundbreaking at Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport marks an exciting milestone for our region,\u201d said Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker. \u201cThe airport continues to serve as a hub of innovation and economic opportunity, and Embraer\u2019s expansion further strengthens Fort Worth\u2019s position as a global leader in aviation and advanced manufacturing. This investment brings not only high-quality jobs but also highlights the strength of our business environment and the talent of our local workforce.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis groundbreaking of Embraer’s second building at AllianceTexas is a testament to Fort Worth\u2019s growing economy,” said Robert Allen, President and CEO of the Fort Worth Economic Development Partnership. \u201cOnce completed, these buildings will expand Embraer’s presence in Fort Worth and, just as important, will expand Fort Worth’s role as a leader in aviation. This is why the Governor has declared Fort Worth the Aviation and Defense Capital of Texas.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cToday\u2019s groundbreaking marks an exciting milestone in Embraer\u2019s partnership with Fort Worth,\u201d said Jessica Rogers, the City\u2019s Economic Development Director. \u201cThis new maintenance facility at Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport represents the next chapter in our city\u2019s long and proud aviation legacy. Embraer\u2019s investment and the creation of 250 high-quality jobs only serve to reinforce Fort Worth\u2019s position as a leading center for aerospace innovation and manufacturing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis expansion is a strong signal of Denton County\u2019s rising role in the global aviation economy,\u201d said Denton County Judge Andy Eads. \u201cThanks to our partnership with Hillwood, companies like Embraer see the value of investing here, fueling regional business growth and long-term economic impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new Fort Worth service center will be part of Embraer\u2019s global network, which includes more than 80 Authorized Service Centers and 13 Embraer Owned Service Centers worldwide.<\/p>\n
