Q8Aviation has been voted Best Regional Marketer in Europe in the 2011 Armbrust Annual Survey, a highly respected independent survey which is unique in directly reflecting the views of airline customers on fuel operators’ performance. In the 16 years of the awards, Q8Aviation has won this prestigious title seven times.

The award was presented to Mark Welch, supply and logistics manager for Q8Aviation, at the first China International Aviation Fuel Conference & Exhibition in Beijing on 5th April 2012.

Fadel Al-Faraj, General Manager of Q8Aviation, comments: ‘We are delighted to win this award again. It is a clear vote of confidence in our service by our customers and we greatly value this recognition. We’re not complacent and will continue to listen to our customers and find ways to do things even better in future.’

Armbrust’s International Director, Keith Carter, says: ‘I am delighted that Q8Aviation has won the Award for the Best Regional Marketer in Europe, for the second year running, and for the seventh time since the Awards were first launched 16 years ago by the Armbrust Aviation Group. This consistent performance in a highly competitive environment is a tribute to the quality and commitment of Q8Aviation and its professional staff to the aviation jet fuel business.’

The sixteenth Armbrust Survey attracted more than 100 responses, representing 70 per cent of the jet fuel bought and sold worldwide. Respondent airlines particularly praised Q8Aviation for its efforts and quality in operational and technical areas, particularly in ‘difficult’ locations.
