MONTREAL, Feb 26 (Reuters) – India’s efforts to improve its airport infrastructure will give Bombardier a chance to boost sales of business jets there, chief executive officer Eric Martel said on Thursday.
Martel told reporters that around 60 Bombardier jets were operating in India, adding that one challenge the company faced was the limited infrastructure.
“The good news is that they are spending a lot of money these days. They’re building a dozen airports as far as I know, and maybe even more,” he told reporters.
“The whole infrastructure (investment) taking place over the next few years will definitely open doors for growth for us.”
