DTX Group and Drayton Aerospace finalize corporate break-up

DTX Group, a parts trader and maintenance, overhaul and repair (MRO) services provider, completed, on June 1, 2025, its separation from Drayton Aerospace and launched as an independent operator on the global stage. 

The split, which had already been announced in the fourth quarter of 2024, is the culmination of a strategic reorientation that has seen Drayton Aerospace’s business divided in two major divisions: a China-focused business, which continues to operate as Drayton Aerospace, and the remaining global operations, which have now become DTX Group. 

As part of this corporate reorganization, Lion Capital, a private equity firm, became an investor in Drayton Aerospace along with several of the business’ Chinese partners, while Hussein Lookmanjee, CEO of the international part of the business, became the sole owner of the new Dubai-based DTX Group. 

Speaking with AeroTime, Lookmanjee confirmed that DTX Group plans to continue consolidating its business in those regions where it has already a significant presence, such as the US, where it runs a parts trading business, Brazil, where it already has two MRO facilities, and the Middle East, where it plans to open a new MRO facility before the end of 2025.  

However, Lookmanjee, also pointed out at Africa and Europe as the next potential growth markets for DTX Group, as the newly independent company is scouting for opportunities to invest the proceeds of the Drayton Aerospace divestment. The post DTX Group and Drayton Aerospace finalize corporate break-up appeared first on AeroTime.
