Bombardier took steps to further reinforce its supply chain through the acquisition of Latécoère’s electrical wiring interconnection system (EWIS) business in Querétaro, Mexico, the Canadian airframer announced today. Terms of the transaction, which closed less than four months after an agreement was announced, were not disclosed.

In announcing the deal in March, Latécoère said that it would continue to develop its own EWIS activities from its site in Hermosillo, Mexico, within a co-located aerostructures and wiring facility. The Tier 1 supplier further emphasized that Bombardier would remain a customer for its North America business.
