ExecuJet MRO Services has recently been appointed by Embraer as its authorized service center (ASC) for business jets in Africa, signifying a significant expansion of the aircraft manufacturer’s service network in the region. This partnership aims to provide exceptional support and services to Embraer customers in Africa. Under the new agreement, ExecuJet MRO Services Africa will expand its Embraer MRO capability to include the Phenom 100 and 300 series aircraft, which are part of Embraer’s entry-level and light jet family.
This development enables local customers to benefit from enhanced support within the region, with the added advantage of Embraer’s endorsement, including the ability to perform warranty work.

With a longstanding and trusted relationship with Embraer, ExecuJet is well-positioned to fulfill its role as the authorized service center.
Frank Stevens, Vice President, Embraer MRO Services – Global said, “We are pleased to partner with ExecuJet for supporting our customers in Africa. The region has great potential to grow, and Embraer Services & Support is prepared to work closely with ExecuJet to offer the best services for our clients.”
To accommodate the growing demand for the Embraer Phenom 300 series in Africa, ExecuJet MRO Services Africa has made investments in additional tooling and has already recruited qualified engineers. These measures reinforce their commitment to providing comprehensive maintenance and support for Embraer aircraft in the region.
Vince Goncalves, Regional Vice President Africa at ExecuJet MRO Services said, “We have been supporting Embraer business jets for many years and have a long and trusted relationship with the aircraft manufacturer. I think we were chosen to be the authorized service center because of our good customer reputation and our international footprint. Our other facilities, such as the Middle East and Australia, are already Embraer-approved. Local customers now have enhanced support in-region and we have the backing of Embraer allowing us, for example, to do warranty work.”
