US aircraft parts distributor FDH Aero has increased its presence in the defence supply chain by acquiring Calco Aerospace, which provides fasteners and other hardware to the military rotorcraft market, FDH announced on 4 January.
FDH purchased Calco from founders Charlie and Lisa Gralapp, who, along with vice-president Daniel Gralapp, will continue to lead operations at their Fort Worth, Texas-based business. Joining a larger company like FDH will improve Calco's ability to support its customers and continue growing, Daniel Gralapp said.
The acquisition is FDH's ninth since it was purchased by US-based Audax Private Equity in 2017.
