Aviation Firm To Showcase Capabilities At Nigeria Air Show

AVIC-KDN, a leading global aviation solutions provider, will participate as a major sponsor and exhibitor at the Nigeria Air Show December 2 to 4, highlighting its integrated airport and aviation solutions.

The company has delivered major airport projects across Africa, including Liberia’s Roberts International Airport and Angola’s Dr António Agostinho Neto International Airport. It views Nigeria as a strategic market with significant growth potential.

Nigeria’s aviation sector supports hundreds of thousands of jobs. It contributes substantially to the country’s GDP, but infrastructure gaps, high operational costs, regulatory challenges, maintenance shortfalls, and safety concerns continue to hinder its growth. AVIC-KDN said it addresses these issues through modernisation, efficiency improvements, and long-term operational support.

“AVIC-KDN will exhibit in Exhibition Hall 1 (Booths A16–A19, A28–A31, B8–B11) alongside partners including Guangtai (Airport Ground Support Equipment), Pteris Global (Integrated Airport Logistics and Facility Equipment), Siyuans Aviation Technology (Airside Solutions), Civil Aviation Electronic Technology Co. (CAET), EMMA Systems (Airport Systems), Sunon (Airport Seating and Terminal Solutions), China Express (Airline, MRO, and Training Solutions), and NANJING LES (Air Traffic & Airport Management Systems).

With its partners, AVIC-KDN aims to support Nigeria’s ambitions of becoming a regional aviation hub through modernised airports, improved operational standards, and strengthened airline development,” AVIC-KDN disclosed in a statement.

“Opening our Abuja office in 2024 allows us to collaborate earlier and more effectively with airport authorities on compliance, operational efficiency, and new service opportunities,” said Tim Chen, Vice President of AVIC-KDN.

“The Nigeria Air Show gives us a unique opportunity to meet stakeholders, share our project experience, and showcase the partners who help us deliver complete airport and airline solutions,” added Mengyao Ma, Regional Manager Africa.
