Aviado Partners Advisory Services GmbH, a leading international transport-sector consulting firm, has been engaged to support the acquisition of South African Airways Group.

Aviado Partners Advisory Services has been engaged by Takatso Aviation (Pty) Ltd to review and revalidate Takatso's plans to acquire shares in South African Airways Group, as well as to refresh components of the Takatso-SAA 5-year business plan and funding plan. The mandate does not include an ongoing technical advisory role for Aviado beyond 31 May 2023.
