18 May 2026 – Alstom, global leader in smart and sustainable mobility, has hosted its first-ever Americas Supplier Day, bringing together 133 suppliers from North and South America, Europe and Asia. Held from May 12-14 in Newark, NJ, the event underscored Alstom’s strong market outlook and its commitment to working closely with suppliers to deliver high‑quality rail equipment and services for transit agencies and airport customers across the region
“Passenger rail demand across the Americas is strong, and the opportunity ahead is significant.”
The summit comes as Alstom moves into production on several recently awarded major contracts and as demand for rail solutions remains robust. Discussions focused on how the industry can rise to meet increased demand, increased preference for localization, and how to leverage both trends to invest in maturing the supply chain and strengthening collaboration to ensure projects are delivered on time and to the highest standards of quality, safety and performance.
“Passenger rail demand across the Americas is strong, and the opportunity ahead is significant,” said Michael Keroullé, President of Alstom Americas. “Meeting that demand depends on strong partnerships and flawless execution. Alstom’s first ever Americas Supplier Day was about celebrating our successes, aligning around our priorities and working together to deliver for our customers.”
With an extensive footprint across both continents, Alstom’s Americas Region employs nearly 15,000 people in 12 countries and plays a key role in supporting local economies and promoting sustainability. Through local sourcing and long-term supplier partnerships, Alstom strengthens supply chains, supports job creation and fosters innovation across the region.
