Boeing to Source Aircraft Parts from Kochi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 2017 by Ranjith Thomas Cyriac in collaboration with his U.S. partner Robert Small, Compaero India specializes in the design and rigorous testing of aerospace and defense industry components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, Ranjith, serving as the Managing Director of Compaero India, stated, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“Boeing representatives from their headquarters in the U.S. and their office in Bengaluru have engaged with us to discuss the potential sourcing of components.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

“The collaboration areas have been identified, and discussions are at an initial stage. Boeing has requested us to initiate the necessary paperwork,” he mentioned to TNIE. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a turnover of Rs 5 crore and a workforce of 20 employees at its Kochi facility, Compaero India currently serves clients in Finland, Norway, Italy, and Israel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suppose the agreement with Boeing is successfully established. In that case, Compaero India will be the first company in Kerala to supply essential components to the renowned U.S. multinational corporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exceptional Expertise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ranjith, who commenced his career as a design engineer in the military aerospace division of FCI-OEN in Kochi in 2002 after completing his engineering studies at Regional Engineering College, Jaipur (now NIT, Jaipur), holds a 51% stake in Compaero India. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His U.S. partner, Robert, owns the remaining 49%. Following the acquisition of the military aerospace division of FCI-OEN by Souriau, a French company, he continued working there until 2016 as Senior Manager (Development & Design). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon Souriau India’s relocation from Kochi to Coimbatore, he left the company and joined Compaero Inc., the U.S. counterpart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
