Jesta Group's Non-Core Operations:

As Jesta Group evolved over the last decades, it has made a foray into other important sectors of the global economy. To that end, Jesta has held investements in the fields of manufacturing, technology and aviation.

With its manufacturing investments, Jesta has held interests in Mexican and Chinese plants and, through its affiliates, has developed strong relationships with Walmart, Costco and other notable players.

Jesta Group's acquisition and cultivation of Jesta I.S, a leading technology company in the soft goods and specialty markets is an example of its ability to identify and acquire businesses outside of its core, while augmenting its position in these spaces. Some of Jesta I.S's clients include the U.S Marines, Armand Thiery (France), Cole Haan, Perry Ellis and Puma.

In the complex field of commercial Aviation, Jesta played a leading role in the founding, development and operations of Astoria Airlines. Its beginnings as a Canadian airline, Jesta continued to play the chief role in its growth and management until 1996 when it disposed of its interests therein. Astoria was the world's first all business class airline and thus speaks to Jesta's continual commitment to distinguish itself throughout its various endeavours.
