Stamoules Produce Company Is A Family-Owned Business Based In Central California
Textron has confirmed the first delivery of its Beechcraft King Air 360 turboprop aircraft.
The event was commemorated in a special delivery to its launch customer - Stamoules Produce Company, Inc. The California-based business selected the flagship King Air 360 as its first-ever aircraft purchase due to its combination of outstanding performance capabilities, ease of operation and the enhanced passenger experience, all of which will help expand the company's growing operations.
The occasion marks another major milestone for the legendary King Air turboprop lineup, which has been flying customers throughout the world for more than 50 years.
"This is a special day for Beechcraft King Air turboprops as we begin a new era for such a beloved aircraft," said Rob Scholl, senior vice president of Sales and Flight Operations for Textron Aviation. "We are privileged to welcome Stamoules Produce Company to the Beechcraft family. This upgraded aircraft features innovative technology and next generation capabilities, and it will allow this launch customer an opportunity to transform the way they do business."
Stamoules Produce Company is a family-owned business based in the San Joaquin Valley of central California, often referred to as the cantaloupe center of the world. Specializing in growing and harvesting fruits, vegetables and nuts on its 17,000 acre farm, Stamoules Produce Company has steadily expanded its business since it began in 1927.
"We're very proud to be the launch customer of the new Beechcraft King Air 360," said Katie Stefanopoulos, a family member, who will also serve as corporate pilot for the new aircraft.
"When selecting our first aircraft, we looked for a product that would not only give us the performance and flexibility we need to grow our business, but also by a company with a trusted name and expertise in the industry - and we found that in the King Air 360 and Textron Aviation. We were excited to learn of the new upgrades and features to an already exceptional aircraft, and I am even more excited to fly."
