Global Engine Stands, Inc.

What Global Engine Stands, Inc. does

Global Engine Stands, Inc. (GES) is a privately held aviation aftermarket services company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Homestead, Florida. The company operates as a full-service, one-stop provider of aircraft engine transportation stands and related ground support equipment, organized around five interconnected service pillars: Engine Stand Sales (certified new and used inventory for immediate global delivery), Engine Stand Purchase (active buying of surplus equipment), Engine Stand Refurbishment (structural and cosmetic restoration to OEM standards), Engine Stand Leasing (flexible short- and long-term programs), and Engine Stand Storage (secure international facilities). GES also sells a small branded merchandise line (hats and apparel) via direct email and phone order.

The underlying asset base is a physical inventory of certified engine stands compatible with a broad engine matrix including APU, CFM56, CF6, CF34, GE90, PW2000/4000/1100/1500, RB211, V2500, and Trent 500/700 platforms. The business is founder-led, with Yexceld Perez as CEO, Yvette Mestre Perez as VP & CFO, and Faro Rivera as VP of Operations, supported by a lean team of approximately 9 staff including a machinist, maintenance coordinators, and warehouse management. The company pursues a sales-led go-to-market with no self-serve or PLG motion: pricing is uniformly quote-based, with "Get a Quote" CTAs throughout the website, and pipeline is generated through direct outreach and an aggressive trade show calendar (Aero Engines Americas, PBEXPO, MRO Americas, Wings N Things, ACPC, MRO Europe in 2026). GES also operates as a sponsor of PBEXPO 2026.
