Aeroplex lands REEL

MOBILE, Ala. – The REEL Group of France is establishing its first U.S. facility with 4,500 square-foot office, warehouse, and workshop space at Mobile Aeroplex. The announcement is in direct response to REEL Service Division being awarded the jigs and tools maintenance service provider contract for the soon-to-open, $600 million Airbus A320 plant, also located at the Aeroplex. The newly formed subsidiary, REEL USA Corp., is expected to create more than 20 full-time positions at the Aeroplex. The lease with the Mobile Airport Authority also allows for expansion.
