Daher has secured two new logistics contracts from Safran, covering warehouse management in Hamburg and a dedicated MRO and AOG platform in the Île-de-France region, with operations starting in April 2026. These contracts supplement an existing agreement with Safran Helicopter Engines in Bordes, Tarnos, and Buchelay, which was renewed and expanded a year earlier and employs more than 150 Daher staff to support helicopter production increases and site upgrades.
In Hamburg, Safran Nacelles awarded Daher a contract in late January 2026 for logistics at its nacelle integration site near the Airbus A320neo final assembly line. A team of 20 Daher employees will manage receiving, storage, parts preparation, handling, and shipping. The service transitioned from a prior operator over two months, bolstering Daher’s logistics footprint in Germany, where it employs 1,100 people, including support for Airbus Defence & Space in Bremen.
In Tremblay-en-France, a 3,000 m² platform will serve Safran Electronics & Defense’s customer support division, handling over 3,000 shipments, 1,700 receipts, and 7,500 picking lines annually. Selected after a March 2025 tender, its location near Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport enables rapid AOG response with a maximum 3-hour-30-minute turnaround via on-call service and Daher’s Warehouse Management System for real-time tracking. The three-year contract includes two optional years.
Daher and Safran logistics teams are also advancing joint automation initiatives, including automated guided vehicles, storage solutions, and control systems. Aymeric Daher, Deputy CEO of Daher and CEO of Daher Logistics, stated: Safran is a strategic partner of the Daher Group. We have been working together for many years with Safran Helicopter Engines, and these new assignments with Safran Nacelles and Safran Electronics & Defense mark an important milestone. We are now present across both industrial activities and spare parts flows, in France and Germany. This is the result of teamwork and a shared commitment to progress together.
