History
Ali Ben Lmadani founded ABL Aviation in December 2014 as a company specializing in Ground Support Equipment (GSE). He had worked with an investment bank on Wall Street, handling deals for airlines like Emirates and Singapore Airlines. From 2016 to 2017, ABL Aviation concentrated on the "mid-life" aircraft segment.
The company moved its headquarters to Dublin, Ireland. Then, additional offices were opened in Casablanca, Morocco, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and Hong Kong, China.
In December 2018, ABL Aviation partnered with a Japanese conglomerate, a financial conglomerate in Japan, to use Japanese Operating Lease (JOL) and Japanese Operating Lease with Call Option (JOLCO) financing structures. The partnership concentrated on investments in new and midlife aircraft for commercial passenger and freight sectors.
Between 2020 and 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, ABL Aviation and Ellington Management Group established a joint venture with a target of $800 million in aircraft assets by deploying capital and offering exposure to directly sourced deals in the global aviation industry.
ABL Aviation partnered with airlines, such as Delta Airlines, Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Air France, VietJet Air, El Al, LATAM Airlines, Pegasus Airlines, Lufthansa, KLM, Wizz Air, Turkish Airlines, Volaris, Eva Air, T'Way Air, Virgin America, Atlas Air, Iberia Air and S7 Airlines.
