Embraer opens Dallas-Fort Worth MRO facility in preparation for brand new center
Embraer has opened a new maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility for commercial jets in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, as it prepares for a brand-new center to be completed.
The Brazilian aircraft manufacturer confirmed on June 25, 2025, that its new commercial MRO facilities had opened in an existing hangar at Perot Field Alliance Airport (AFW).
The second hangar at AFW is scheduled for completion in 2027, increasing Embraer’s capacity to serve its US customers across the country by 53%.
The investment will reach up to $70 million and is expected to create approximately 250 new aviation jobs in Texas.
“We are very excited to start operations at our new MRO facility in Fort Worth. The support from the City of Fort Worth, Denton County, and the State of Texas has been essential for launching this operation,” said Frank Stevens, Vice President of Global MRO Centers at Embraer Services and Support.
EmbraerStevens added: “We will continue working to expand Embraer’s capacity, capability, and footprint in the US.”
The new Fort Worth service center is the 13th Embraer-owned service center, one of more than 80 Authorized Service Centers worldwide. Embraer announced details about its latest MRO facility back in November 2024.
“We are excited to join Embraer in celebrating the launch of their expanded operations at Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport. Hillwood’s mission at Alliance Texas is to attract world-class companies while creating new jobs in our region – and Embraer is doing just that,” said Bill Burton, Executive Vice President for Hillwood.
He added: “Their phased expansion and investment in Fort Worth underscore the strength of our partnerships and Fort Worth’s standing as a center of aerospace excellence.”
