Our History
Aercap Ireland Limited began its journey over fifteen years ago as a modest consultancy operating from a shared office space in Shannon. At that time, the founder recognized that many growing businesses struggled to access essential equipment due to high purchase costs or rigid, opaque financing alternatives. The initial focus was simple: provide honest advice on asset logistics and help small operators find better ways to secure what they needed. Word of this straightforward approach spread quickly among local business owners.
During the first five years, the company gradually expanded its services beyond pure consultancy. Client requests revealed a demand for end-to-end management — not just advice, but actual structuring and administration of asset agreements. In response, Aercap Ireland Limited hired its first dedicated structuring manager and began offering custom frameworks. This period also saw the company relocate to larger offices within the Westpark Business Campus to accommodate a growing team and increasing volumes of documentation.
The next phase of growth was defined by geographical and sectoral expansion. Having proven its model within Ireland, the company began coordinating with partners across other European jurisdictions. New industries, from logistics to professional services, approached Aercap for tailored solutions. Despite this growth, the leadership refused to compromise on personalized service. Every client, regardless of size, continued to receive the same thorough attention and clear contracts that had built the company’s reputation.
Today, Aercap Ireland Limited stands as an established name known for integrity and operational precision. While the company has evolved from a one-person advisory to a structured organization with multiple departments, the founding values have never changed. The same commitment to transparency, flexibility, and long-term partnerships that guided the earliest days still drives every decision. Looking back, the company’s history is not simply a story of expansion — it is a story of relationships built one clear agreement at a time.
