Stillwater represented Maxcraft Avionics in the transaction.
Stillwater Capital is pleased to announce that it served as an exclusive advisor to Maxcraft Avionics Ltd (Maxcraft) in its sale to Maverick Aviation Group Limited (Maverick).
Maxcraft is a leading Canadian provider of avionics installation, repair, and design engineering services, headquartered in Pitt Meadows, British Columbia.
This strategic acquisition strengthens Maverick’s presence in Western Canada and positions the combined group as one of the most capable independent avionics and instrument service providers in North America and globally. For Maxcraft’s customers, the transition ensures continuity in service, leadership, and technical excellence—with added benefits from Maverick’s coast-to-coast service network.
“For more than 35 years, Maxcraft has built its reputation on trust, technical depth, and personalized customer care,” said Trevor Rehberg-Besler, President of Maverick Aviation Group. “We’re committed to preserving everything customers value about Maxcraft—while bringing the added strength of a national platform and long-term investment in people, tools, and infrastructure.”
Daryl Macintosh and Steve Nunn, two long-standing leaders at Maxcraft, will remain with the company and continue to oversee operations and customer service. Their roles ensure that the relationships and service standards customers have come to rely on remain unchanged.
“This acquisition is not a departure from who we are—it’s a continuation,” said Steve Nunn “Partnering with Maverick gives us the ability to take Maxcraft to the next level—adding resources, expanding our capabilities, and ultimately delivering more value to our customers.”
“Our customers count on us for technical depth, compliance knowledge, and execution. That doesn’t change,” added Daryl Macintosh. “We’re excited to continue serving our clients with the same hands-on approach, now backed by greater reach and long-term stability.”
Jordan Nix, Stillwater’s Executive Vice President led the deal team through the transaction with the support of Jamal Faraj. Commenting on the transaction, Jordan Nix said, “Daryl and Steve have built an impressive company. A lifetime of hard work has been well rewarded. Maverick has made an excellent acquisition that strengthens its already impressive capabilities. We are delighted to have been part of bringing these two organizations together.”
