Scales its global engine MRO and asset management businesses from Abu Dhabi

The results mark Sanad’s second consecutive year of record performance and reflects the continued execution of its long-term strategy to build an integrated global aerospace platform from Abu Dhabi, combining aircraft engine maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) and asset management capabilities enabled by next-generation aerospace infrastructure, serving the global aviation market.
“Sanad’s 2025 performance underscores the strength of our long-term strategy and the resilience of our business model. Our continued expansion reinforces the Emirate’s position as a critical player in the global aviation value chain,” stated Amer Siddiqui, Chairman, Sanad Group.
“Sanad today operates as an integrated global MRO and asset management platform positioned not only to meet demand, but to shape the future of the aviation industry,” stressed Mansoor Janahi, Managing Director and CEO, Sanad Group,
MRO
Sanad continued scaling its global engine MRO platform in 2025, recording 230 engine inductions, up from 161 in 2024, as sustained demand strengthened across its Trent 700, V2500, LEAP, and GEnx engine programs.
Sanad’s expanding capabilities translated into strong commercial momentum, as the company continued to grow its global customer base and contracted pipeline.
Sanad’s contracted backlog reached AED 38bn, providing long-term revenue visibility over the next three decades and underscoring the scale and durability of its global MRO platform.
To accommodate this growth, Sanad also expanded its operational footprint through a strategic partnership with AMMROC, a premier provider of maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services, securing additional space to support increasing engine inductions and further scale its MRO operations.
