Aerocor’s helicopter division has surpassed initial targets just nine months into its launch, the company said this week. Originally aiming for five transactions in its first year, it has completed nine to date, including four acquisitions and five sales. Eight of the aircraft were turbine-powered helicopters, and one was imported from Europe, expanding the company’s inventory and international footprint.
According to Aerocor, this growth reflects its ability to apply a data-driven sales model to the rotorcraft market. Early response has been strong, particularly among turbine helicopter buyers seeking specialized sales and acquisition support, it said.
“Many of our aircraft sales clients also own helicopters, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to extend our signature service to them,” said Devon Lyons, helicopter sales director at Aerocor. “With our expertise in international sales, acquisitions, and concierge brokerage, we provide a seamless, tailored experience for every client, no matter where they’re located.”
Co-founder Gavin Woodman added, “We are always looking for opportunities to provide value to our clients, particularly in underserved markets. Adding a data-driven sales program for owner-flown helicopters was an obvious next step, and we are very excited by the response.”
With continued interest in rotorcraft sales and acquisitions, Aerocor said its helicopter division is positioned to support a broader range of client needs as the company builds out capabilities in this segment.
