Chapman Freeborn has opened a new regional office in Houston, Texas.

“We are excited to establish our presence via a dedicated office in the Houston market to support our clients in the oil, gas, air logistics and other industries based in the area,” says president Americas David McCown. “As we celebrate Chapman Freeborn's 50th anniversary this year, the opening of our new regional office highlights our continued commitment to making it easy for our customers to get the specialised and personalised services they need.”

“One of Chapman Freeborn's market differentiators is our personalised level of services. Establishing a dedicated office in Houston will allow us to enhance our on-the-ground support for cargo transitioning in and out of area airports,” he continues. “With our diverse array of charter offerings, we've seen tremendous growth in our private and cargo charter operations and ACMI (aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance) business segments in the southern and central US, as well as Mexico and Latin America.”

The new Houston office follows on from the company's recently-opened location in New York. It is part of an aggressive strategy to expand locations, the team and its array of services throughout the Americas.
