(OTCBB: BSTA ), an aviation services and logistics management company, today announced that Monarch Air Group has entered into a five year Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) with the Defense Logistics Agency Energy department (DLA Energy) for the supply of jet fuel to various locations outside the continental United States.
Basta Holdings has an exclusive marketing and private jet charter agreement with Monarch Air Group, LLC.
