FuelStream announced today that its subsidiary AFI South Africa, LLC has entered into an agreement to create a fuel logistics joint venture with South African based Global Airway (“Global”). Global is an international Air Transport Organization whose activities cover acquisition, refurbishment, heavy maintenance, leasing and chartering of aircrafts throughout South Africa. This transaction will expand FuelStream’s international footprint in a market that is developing standardized systems to meet the aviation fueling needs of commercial and cargo carriers.
“We are excited to have the opportunity to partner with Global, a trusted premier aviation brand in Sub-Saharan Africa. We share a similar vision; the implementation of our logistics fuel supply program will provide a consistent and reliable delivery source to airline customers in the region. We anticipate a rapid rollout of our services and continued worldwide expansion” said Russell Adler, CEO of FuelStream. “Global’s strength in MRO and Leasing combined with its base of regional and international airline carriers will serve as the foundation to develop a standardized fuel logistics model in a region that traditionally lagged behind many parts of the world.” The partnership underlines the company’s strategic plan to generate new revenue streams by partnering with Aircraft Leasing and MRO businesses and includes the development, operation and management of the fuel storage, supply and logistic operations located in South Africa. It is anticipated that the partnership will oversee the logistics delivery of more than 3 Million gallons of Jet-A Fuel per month by the end of 2013. Through the first six months of this year, we have seen Jet fuel prices in the $3.00 to $4.00 per gallon range. ABOUT FUELSTREAM, INC.
