Pilatus Seville Facility Opens For Production Ramp-Up Pilatus has officially opened its Seville Ibérica SA facility to enhance its ramp-up of the advanced turboprop single PC-12 and the executive PC-24 jet. Production ramp-up at Pilatus’ Seville facility has been underway since early 2025. Structural assemblies for the PC-24 and wiring harnesses for the PC-12 are already produced in Seville. Structural manufacturing for the PC-12 will begin in early 2026. Currently, approximately 75 employees work at Pilatus, with further staff expansion planned for the coming year.
Markus Bucher, CEO of Pilatus, commented on the new production facility in Spain: "To meet the growing demand for our aircraft, we decided to open a facility in Seville. Spain has a long aviation tradition, an excellent network of subcontractors and suppliers, outstanding educational institutions, highly qualified professionals, and an attractive investment environment. In this context, Pilatus thanks the Spanish government, local authorities in Andalusia, and the economic development agency TRADE for their outstanding support of our project."
Given the increasing demand from business aviation, Pilatus no longer has sufficient production space at its headquarters in Stans. With the Seville facility, Pilatus strengthens its international capabilities while highlighting its growth potential, innovative strength, and commitment to long-term partnerships.
