European civil and military helicopter manufacturer Eurocopter is set to expand its global presence by opening a subsidiary company in Indonesia by the end of next year.
The EADS subsidiary, which was established in 1992 and have operated in Indonesia for the last 30 years, will set up its first Indonesian headquarters in Jakarta and will employ between 70 and 100 workers, according to reports by Kompas.com.
The local office will cooperate with state-owned aircraft maker PT Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI) in providing sales and after-sales services to its local customers.
Eurocopter and PTDI had earlier signed a cooperation agreement for a local helicopter assembly factory for Super Puma MK helicopters in October this year.
The company has previously secured a production permit for 118 BO 105 series choppers.
