Rockwell Collins expands Brazilian presence

Valor International

A growing partnership with Embraer for the development of tactical airlifter KC-390 and to supply avionics for executive jets Legacy 450 and 500, as well as new information technology management contracts with Brazilian airports, have provided a boost to Rockwell Collins Brasil's investments. To service the new contracts in the country, Rockwell has doubled the size of its local facilities and also opened a new center in São José dos Campos, São Paulo. The company has invested $10 million in Brazil since 2010 and plans to spend the same amount until 2020.
