Aerospace giant EADS moving a unit to Mobile: EADS CASA North America is relocating locally for support maintenance of aircraft built in Spain

Mobile Register -- 04/09/04

A spokeswoman with the European Aeronautic Defense and Space Co. said Thursday that it is relocating one division of its North American operations to Mobile, not its entire North American enterprise.

Mobile Regional Airport will soon be home to EADS CASA North America, one of 11 divisions within the larger EADS North America, said spokeswoman Diane Murphy.

The division's 10 employees will move from Chantilly, Va., offices to Mobile. Construction of 5,000 square feet of office space and 8,000 square feet of warehouse space is expected to begin later this month. The support and service center is a $1 million investment for EADS.

EADS North America, based in Washington, is the North American holding company for EADS, the second-largest aerospace and defense company in the world. Boeing Co. holds the top spot.
