The aircraft maintenance company SR Technics has agreed to sell part of its operation at Dublin airport which it said it was closing earlier this year.
The Swiss-owned company said that “a preferred bidder” had been chosen for its landing gear and auxiliary power unit (APU) operations.
The company declined to name the preferred bidder or say how much the deal was worth.
SR Technics announced in February that it was to close its aircraft maintenance plant at Dublin Airport with the loss of more than 1,100 jobs.
