DALLAS, Feb. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Boeing [NYSE: BA] achieved an annual record for e-commerce parts sales last year with more than $2 billion in online orders. Fueled by investment in digital tools, Boeing Distribution Inc. (formerly Aviall) sold nearly 70,000 parts products through its e-commerce site to commercial and government customers, eclipsing pre-pandemic levels. Commercial orders accounted for $1.5 billion in sales, reflecting the continued recovery in the airline industry.
"Our $2 billion closeout to 2021 was a great capstone as the market heads to a more stable recovery," said Ted Colbert, president and chief executive officer, Boeing Global Services, at the Singapore Airshow today. "Our e-commerce capabilities are a great example of the digital solutions we provide to enable industry recovery and growth.
