Embraer has announced the expansion of its maintenance, repair and overhaul services network to support the growing fleet of E-Jets with the opening of a new Embraer owned service center at the Perot Field Alliance Airport, in Fort Worth, Texas.

In partnership with the City of Fort Worth, Denton County and the State of Texas, Embraer expects to begin operations in an existing hangar in the beginning of the second quarter of 2025, while building a second hangar that should be concluded by 2027.

With the new facilities, Embraer’s capacity to serve the E-Jets customers will increase by 53% in the US. The investment will reach up to US$70 million and is expected to create approximately 250 new aviation jobs in Texas.

“We are excited to receive the final approval for this important expansion of our MRO business that supports our continued investment in the US market,” said Carlos Naufel, president and CEO Embraer Services & Support.

“We have a long-standing relationship with the State of Texas and look forward to our partnership with Hillwood at Alliance, and the opening of this new service center will create hundreds of highly skilled jobs in a vital segment for the aviation industry.”

The new Fort Worth service center will be added to Embraer’s global network, which includes 80 authorized centers and 12 owned service centers around the world.

“We are excited to welcome Embraer, a global leader in aviation, to Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport and North Texas,” said Ross Perot, Jr, chairman and CEO of Hillwood. “This new facility will bring 250 high-quality jobs to Fort Worth and North Texas, further strengthening our region’s role as a key hub for aerospace innovation while ensuring that Embraer can efficiently support its expanding fleet of commercial jets in the U.S. We are proud to be a part of this exciting new chapter in their growth.”

“We’re thrilled that Embraer has selected Fort Worth and Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport for their new aircraft facility,” said Robert Allen, president & CEO, Fort Worth Economic Development Partnership. “Collaborating closely with Hillwood and Embraer’s team throughout the entire process, this project stands as a clear testament to Fort Worth’s robust aerospace and defense sector. We’re excited to see the lasting impact this will have on the industry and our community’s continued growth.”

“We’re excited to welcome Embraer to Fort Worth, and more specifically, to the Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport,” said director of economic development for the City of Fort Worth Robert Sturns. “As one of the largest producers of civil aircraft in the world, Embraer’s new maintenance facility and 250 jobs will be an outstanding addition to our city, building upon the success of Fort Worth’s well-established foundations in aerospace and aviation.”

“This project is part of our growing aviation industry in Denton County, thanks in part to our longstanding partnership with Hillwood,” said Denton county judge Andy Eads. “The expansion of Embraer here will assist other aviation companies across the North Texas Region. In addition, through this deal, Denton County residents will have access to these well-paying career opportunities.”

“I am thrilled to see a well-respected company like Embraer expanding in Denton County. And we so appreciate the ongoing partnership with Hillwood,” said Denton County Precinct 4 Commissioner Dianne Edmondson.”
