While the ferocity of Russian attacks on Ukraine remain unabated Bell Textron has has announced the formation of a subsidiary in Ukraine and plans to open a dedicated office as part of its long-term approach to industrial cooperation in the country. Clearly the new subsidiary named Bell Textron Ukraine, will serve as the hub for Bell’s activities in Ukraine, with a permanent office location yet to be confirmed. It will support Bell’s planned and future activities in Ukraine focused on helicopter assembly, maintenance, and repair. The announcement follows the signing of Letters of Intent in October between Bell Textron and Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy, Ecology and Agriculture to explore areas of cooperation.
“This is a meaningful step toward building a practical, mutually beneficial cooperation with the Ukraine defence and industrial base,” said Jeffrey Schloesser, senior vice president of Strategic Pursuits, Bell. “Bell is committed to establishing a presence in Ukraine to promote collaboration and long-term growth.”
