Bombardier (OTCMKTS:BDRBF) (OTCMKTS: BDRBF) is a Canadian multinational aerospace manufacturer specializing in business jets. Headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, the company operates through two principal segments: the design, development and manufacturing of aircraft and the provision of comprehensive aftermarket services. Bombardier’s business model focuses on the production of mid- to large-cabin jets under the Challenger and Global series, positioning itself as a key player in the premium aviation market.
The Challenger family includes the Challenger 3500 and Challenger 650, which serve a broad range of corporate and charter operators with a balance of comfort, range and operating efficiency.

These aircraft are known for their fuel efficiency, advanced avionics suites and spacious cabins designed to meet the requirements of executive travel.
In addition to new aircraft sales, Bombardier maintains an extensive global support network providing maintenance, spare parts supply, repair services and pilot and maintenance-crew training. The company’s service centers in North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East deliver around-the-clock technical support and digital solutions through its Bombardier Connect platform. This combination of product and service offerings aims to enhance fleet reliability, reduce downtime and provide customers with data-driven operational insights.
Founded in 1942 by Joseph-Armand Bombardier as a snowmobile manufacturer, the company diversified into rail transportation before refocusing on business aviation through divestitures completed by 2021. Bombardier’s leadership team is headed by President and Chief Executive Officer Éric Martel, who joined the company in 2020 and has since driven operational efficiency and product innovation. With a manufacturing footprint spanning Canada, the United States and Europe, Bombardier serves clientele in over 90 countries, reinforcing its reputation as a global leader in the business jet industry.
