This was definitely the best U.S. agricultural aviation trade show we have ever attended. Not because of the new business we closed, or the new ideas and technologies we discussed with our partners, but mainly because we can now share and offer some of Zanoni experience to the U.S. market.
Thanks to our partners at Turbine Conversions, we have accomplished a lot in the last decade in North America. We can find operators from California to Eastern Canada flying Zanoni equipment, and we have expanded our parts distribution throughout the Midwest. We now have true partners in the industry who can count on us and call us for any “ag aviation problem” they need to solve. We have long-time customers coming back for new products, and we have new customers coming through referrals from other pilots.
The trade show was also a great opportunity to meet with other Zanoni partners who help us grow our business every day. Special thanks to our friends:
- Agnav, for a partnership of almost two decades for global agricultural aviation;
- Our first American customers, who encouraged us to come to the US market;
- Our new local distributors Wilde Air Service and Beckman Aircraft Maintenance, who are helping us in Nebraska and South Dakota;
- Local equipment manufacturers, such as Reabe and other local partners, with whom we are now working together on new products;
- The three Air Tractor dealers (AgSur/Crosslands, Lane/Aeroglobo/Falconer and Frost/DP) for the opportunity to work together for the benefit of our agricultural aviation force in Latin America;
- NAAA for organizing such a great event and helping to promote our industry;
- Dellair, FieldAir and Conversiones, our agents in other continents who have helped us even in the US market;
- SINDAG and the Argentine agricultural aviation industry, for bringing the largest South American mission ever to the NAAA convention.
See you in Reno next year!
