Congressman Neal Dunn (Florida-02) has publicly commended the international aerospace company Nammo and America-based Raytheon on their recent agreement to expand Nammo's existing manufacturing facility in Perry, Florida.

"I’m thrilled to hear that Nammo and Raytheon have decided to continue their relationship with the people of Perry by expanding their investment in the local economy," said Congressman Dunn. "This agreement will give the United States a reliable domestic source of rocket motors for the foreseeable future while strengthening the North Florida economy. Companies worldwide continue investing in North Florida because of the strong business climate and hardworking residents. I look forward to seeing how this agreement will benefit the people of Perry and bolster our national security.”

Nammo, headquartered in Norway, operates seven U.S. production sites specializing in manufacturing ammunition, rocket motors, and space applications. Approximately one-third of its employees are based in the United States. Raytheon, an RTX company, is a leading provider of defense solutions to the U.S. government and allied nations.

The expanded facility is expected to open its doors in 2027.
