Alestis Aerospace
A Spanish Tier-1 aerostructures manufacturer founded in 2009, headquartered near Seville, that designs, engineers and manufactures composite and metallic aircraft structures for OEMs including Airbus, Boeing and Embraer, with plants in Spain and Brazil and roughly 1,500 employees. It is not a VC-backed startup: it was majority state/corporate-owned (SEPI, Aciturri), was fully acquired by Aciturri Aeronáutica in February 2024, and now operates as the rebranded entity Sonaca España.
