Dozens of good, high-paying jobs eyed with Revision Military U.S. headquarters at Pease

CONCORD - Governor Chris Sununu and Commissioner Taylor Caswell announced today that Revision Military, a multinational company with locations across the globe is choosing Portsmouth as its U.S. headquarters.

Revision Military, a world leader in military and tactical solutions and protective equipment, will be opening its new offices at Pease International Tradeport. The New Hampshire location will become Revision's US Headquarters and Center of Excellence, steering product research as well as the development and manufacturing of the company's most advanced products.

"Revision Military was the first company I met with after being elected Governor, and today's announcement is a testament to our pro-growth, pro-jobs agenda," said Gov. Sununu. "As an acclaimed international company, their expansion into the Granite State - which will serve as their US Headquarters - proves that New Hampshire is open for business once again. Revision designs and manufactures state of the art military hardware that keeps our troops safe, and we are proud they will call New Hampshire home."

"New Hampshire's business climate and hyper-focus on economic development is paying dividends every day," said Commissioner Taylor Caswell. "Precision manufacturers like Revision are expanding and coming here for our quality workforce, low taxes, and business friendly approach. These things don't happen by accident."

"Revision's expansion to New Hampshire deepens the company's already-well-founded commitment to U.S. based operations and manufacturing," said Jonathan Blanshay, CEO of Revision Military. "Moreover, this future location represents a bold but necessary next step forward for the company - indicative of both Revision's ever-widening vision for innovation in soldier systems and tactical solutions. It is also essential in order to effectively house the full breadth of the company's growing capabilities.

"We are very excited to initiate this new chapter for the company and we have started to put together a world-class team. Revision has evolved significantly over the last 17 years and this upcoming investment in a prime location makes our intentions clear: We expect to accelerate our growth and capabilities for the foreseeable future, and in the coming months and years we will be looking to hire dozens of the very best engineers, technicians, manufacturing experts and program managers available in the area in order to further develop our vision and service our customers."

Revision has already hired the first group of New Hampshire management-level employees. Together they will spearhead the development of new facilities, new capabilities and implement near-term strategy based on Revision's current slate of projects, contracts, and in-progress bids. This founding group of New Hampshire-based employees includes Chief Technology Officer Chris Palmer, who will oversee the team and report directly to Blanshay. By expanding to New Hampshire, Revision will improve access to its military customer base in the Greater Boston area as well as along the Eastern seaboard, and will be better positioned to work collaboratively with local academic institutions, such as the University of New Hampshire, and a significant number of locally based partners and suppliers.
