El Salvador continues to solidify its position as an attractive destination for private investment, especially in strategic sectors such as the aerospace industry. President Nayib Bukele recently participated in the inauguration of Aeroman’s seventh hangar. Aeroman is a company specializing in aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO), considered among the most competitive in the world.

The new facility, known as Hangar 7, represents a significant step in the company’s expansion and in strengthening the country’s aerospace ecosystem. During the ceremony, the president highlighted the magnitude of the project and its global impact. “With this project, Aeroman becomes the largest maintenance center in the world. That fills us with pride because it’s here in El Salvador”, he said.

Bukele also recalled participating in the inauguration of Hangar 6 years ago, when the company was already establishing itself as a leader in its sector. Since then, Aeroman has maintained sustained growth, driven by both international demand and the favorable investment conditions offered by the country.

Aeroman CEO Alejandro Echeverría explained that this expansion adds 16 new production lines, bringing the total to 65 in a single facility. This capacity will allow the company to service both wide-body and narrow-body aircraft, significantly expanding its operational reach.

Aeroman operates from El Salvador International Airport, located in the department of La Paz, and has over 30 years of experience. Throughout this time, it has helped position the country as a leader in highly specialized aeronautical services. Furthermore, it has established itself as one of the sector’s main employees, with highly trained personnel capable of performing complex maintenance according to international standards.

During his remarks, President Bukele emphasized that these types of investments reflect a favorable business environment. He noted that El Salvador offers legal security, political stability, and citizen support for economic development policies, which fosters long-term investor confidence.

He also said that his administration has implemented measures to facilitate investment, such as reducing bureaucratic procedures, digitizing processes, approving more attractive legal frameworks, and strengthening public security. According to the government, these factors have been key to attracting foreign capital and promoting the expansion of companies already established in the country.

The inauguration of Aeroman’s Hangar 7 represents a milestone not only for the company but also for El Salvador, which continues to advance toward its goal of becoming a regional leader in attracting investment and industrial development, especially in high value-added sectors.
