IMPERIAL Holdings endorses NAC announcements

Strategy Director, Tak Hiemstra shared the following:

“NAC’s delivery of the Robinson R66 is a clear indication of the company’s commitment to securing the finest new products in the industry for its customers. Added to this, Beechcraft’s decision to extend its Service Centre Agreement is an indication of the expertise, professionalism and knowledge provided by NAC. The company’s exceptional service levels are also endorsed with NAC’s appointment as exclusive Flight Options and Netjets resale representative in Africa. Its appointment as the sole African sales representative for the Quest Kodiak and Nextant Aerospace serves as ratification of the company’s high standing and capability within the aviation industry. As a 62 percent shareholder of the company, Imperial Holdings is fully supportive of NAC’s strategy and is exceptionally proud to be associated with this professional aviation company, which offers a range of the best new and used products in the industry. NAC’s outstanding reputation, capability and experience are clearly evident through its strong relationships and the key supply contracts it has secured across the industry.”
