Aventure Aviation Named Top Exporter in Southeast

Aventure Aviation, a supplier of aircraft parts headquartered in Peachtree City, has been selected by the US Small Business Administration as the winner of the 2009 Exporter of the Year for Georgia and Exporter of the Year for the Southeast US.

The Exporter of the Year award is presented to companies based on the total number of export deals completed in 2008, increase in sales in 2008 compared to previous years, exports as percentage of total sales, the company's commitment to exporting and to customer service, and the company's innovation and originality in marketing their products or services.

Aventure has grown substantially since its formation in 2001 when it began with only one international account and three staff members. Today, exports account for over 90% of its sales and Aventure has increased its staff to thirteen employees. To accomodate this growth, in June 2008, Aventure Aviation expanded and moved into their new custombuilt facility on six acres in Peachtree City, GA, located in the Foreign Trade Zone.
