About Aves Holdings
Aviation expertise, brought together under one group.
Since 2015 we have built a portfolio of specialist companies delivering project management, technical training, consulting & procurement and compliance management.
Who we are
A holding company with a hangar-floor mindset.
Aves Holdings was founded in 2015 as a holding company with several businesses in its portfolio — including Aves Technics, our Aircraft Maintenance Organisation founded in 2019.
The group was established to deliver services in project management, technical training, consulting & procurement and compliance management. Today that has grown to include aircraft maintenance, spare parts supply, logistics, drone operations and vehicle recovery.
We are based at the Denel Aviation Campus at O.R. Tambo International Airport — South Africa's busiest aviation hub — and serve operators and organisations across Africa and Europe.
