Kellstrom Holding Corporation is excited to announce the grand opening of the Williams Aerospace & Manufacturing's operating facility in Chula Vista, CA. The 25,000 square-foot facility has been designed to support the requirements of our global defense customers and will support an expanded product offering as part of our mission to keep aircraft flying for a safer world.

The strategic location and purpose-built facility expansion allows our Engineered Products segment and the WAM business to build upon valued relationships with the local supply base and to retain our highly skilled, San Diego County-based workforce. These ingredients continue to ensure that we are positioned to address customer challenges and remain a leader in aerospace aftermarket design and fabrication.

A ribbon cutting ceremony was held at the new WAM manufacturing facility. The overall WAM Engineered Products team was welcomed into the community by Chula Vista Mayor Mary Salas, city council representatives, and a contingent of aerospace business customers, industry partners, and suppliers to recognize the expansion and relocation of the business.

"This new state-of-the-art manufacturing venue will allow our teams to build upon the highquality products and services that our customers are accustomed to receiving as part of the Kellstrom Defense Promise. It remains our commitment to be a leader in the manufacture of complex, mission critical engineered products for legacy defense platforms," stated Scott Wooden, President of the KHC Engineered Products business segment and leader of the WAM business entity.
