Boeing and Joramco are teaming up to open a new Boeing Converted Freighter (BCF) line in Amman, Jordan, making Joramco the first MRO supplier in the Middle East to support future Boeing freighter conversions of domestic and foreign aircraft.
With its location in Amman, Joramco will be geographically located to support future 737-800BCF customers operating across the Middle East, Europe, North Africa and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
“The new 737-800BCF capability we’re bringing to our MRO is another major milestone for Joramco, and we are delighted Boeing has selected Joramco as a future site for the 737-800BCF,” said Fraser Currie, CEO, Joramco. “Our geographic location in Amman, our deep MRO experience and the opportunity to work together with Dubai Aerospace Enterprise on their customers’ requirements make this a very exciting opportunity.”
“We continue to look for opportunities to bring freighter conversion capacity closer to our customers,” said Mike Doellefeld, Boeing’s Commercial Programs Vice President of Engineering Services. “Connecting with Joramco reflects the potential of a growing region combined with an MRO capable of producing the BCF with the quality our customers expect.”
