Your European Sales Partner for Aerospace & Defence
We help overseas manufacturers grow aerospace and defence sales across Europe. Whether you are entering the European market for the first time or already established, we open conversations with OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers and represent you in them.
The Challenge
Why European Expansion is Hard Without Local Presence
Complex, relationship-driven supply chains
European aerospace buyers prefer suppliers represented by people they know and trust.
Built on credibility and trust
European OEM and Tier-1 programmes are qualification-led and relationship-driven. The relationships and contracts they produce tend to be durable.
High cost of setting up locally
Building an in-house European BD team requires significant investment per person, with recruitment risk and no guarantee of success.
Opportunities slip without local presence
Without someone on the ground in European time zones, momentum stalls and relationships struggle to take hold.
Our Solution
How We Help You Grow in Europe
Engineering knowledge that builds credibility
We speak the technical language and bring the credibility that opens doors with European buyers.
Established connections with OEMs & Tier-1s
We engage at every level, from procurement and engineering to senior management and R&D.
Trusted local representation
Established across Europe, with our team bringing 30+ years of international business development experience in aerospace, defence and space.
Driving opportunities forward
We keep momentum by arranging meetings, acting as your liaison through the RFQ process, and following up consistently.
A cost-effective alternative to hiring a full European BD team. We provide the expertise, contacts and persistence needed to compete for business with European OEMs and Tier-1s, whether you are entering Europe for the first time or building on existing sales.
No competing products
We never represent competing products or services. One client per discipline, so your interests are always protected.
Complementary strengths
We often represent companies whose products complement each other, which means shared contacts and faster access to the right people.
Long-term relationships
Most of our principals have been with us for over five years, several for more than a decade. We build lasting partnerships, not short-term arrangements.
