Rotortrade Services, the independent multi-brand helicopter brokerage service company and exclusive global distributor of Leonardo’s pre-owned helicopters, is sustaining the trajectory of its development plan in 2017 to be the international leader for the growing pre-owned market. The end-to-end brokerage services company aims to bridge the gap that exists between helicopter owners, operators, maintenance organizations, original manufacturers and the industry as a whole.

Since its inception in 2013, Rotortrade Services has been steadily expanding its reach from its headquarters in Singapore to Kuala Lumpur, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Paris and more recently, Montreal. Moreover, it continues to further cement exclusive affiliations with key network partners across the rest of the world, such as with its recent partnership with Philjets for Cambodia and the Philippines.

Driving the success of Rotortrade Services are chairman Philippe Lubrano, senior partner Raymond Lubrano, managing partner Aurélien Blanc and CFO and partner Franck Bouillon. Together with their team, Rotortrade Services offers customers its shared expertise and understanding of the pre-owned market and the overall industry.

Due to its professionalism and experience in the industry, Rotortrade Services has cultivated unique relationships with original equipment manufacturers allowing it to offer its clients selected warranty on airframes and engines. Rotortrade Services boasts an extensive fleet of quality aircraft with all mission types available from leading helicopter and turbine manufacturers such as Leonardo, Bell, AIrbus, Turbomeca and Pratt & Whitney. Rotortrade has more than 50 aircraft in its inventory at any given time. Since the start of 2017, the company has already logged seven sales and solidified its position in the market through the recent purchase and awarded mandates of several types including 350s, 109s, 139s and 225s.

At the heart of Rotortrade Services is its mantra: “We don’t make a sale, we make a customer.” Indeed, “A successful transaction goes far beyond the transfer of ownership,” says managing director Aurelien Blanc. More than connecting clientele with quality aircraft, Rotortrade Services presents a comprehensive range of services starting with pre-sales purchase inspection and evaluation and maintenance and retrofit management. Through its Exclusive Network model, Rotortrade Services is leaner and quicker to marke, making it more competitive over other brokers in the industry. Valuing innovation, reactivity, flexibility and commitment, Rotortrade Services hopes to create long-lasting customer relationships, further demonstrating its promise “To serve the customer better” on a global platform.
