Marmon Aerospace & Defense breaks ground on plant in New Hampshire

Marmon Aerospace Hooksett Plant Investment Expands Cable Production

Marmon Aerospace & Defense, a Marmon/Berkshire Hathaway company, has broken ground on a new 80,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Hooksett, New Hampshire. The Marmon Aerospace Hooksett plant investment will expand the company’s U.S. cable production capacity and strengthen support for the U.S. Navy and its shipbuilding network.

The company plans to complete the facility in the fall of 2023, bringing 20 new production jobs to the local area and boosting regional manufacturing growth.

Investing $30 Million in Advanced Manufacturing

Marmon Aerospace & Defense is investing $30 million to build this state-of-the-art facility. Once operational, the plant will produce large shipboard power cables, an essential component for next-generation naval ships.

This new operation will complement existing production at Marmon’s other facilities in Manchester, New Hampshire, and Naples, Florida. By expanding its U.S. footprint, the company aims to meet rising defense industry demand and enhance national supply reliability.

Strengthening Naval Cable Capabilities

The Marmon Aerospace Hooksett plant investment will significantly expand the company’s line of military shipboard cables, including power, data, instrumentation, control, and communication cables.

“This new facility broadens our ability to support the U.S. Navy’s growing needs,” said Robert Canny, President of Marmon Aerospace & Defense Group. “We’re proud to invest in technologies that serve our customers, empower our employees, and strengthen our community.”

Commitment to Community and Workforce Growth

Beyond manufacturing, Marmon’s expansion brings direct benefits to Hooksett and the greater Manchester region. The new jobs will drive local workforce opportunities while reinforcing New Hampshire’s role as a hub for advanced aerospace and defense innovation.

Through this expansion, Marmon Aerospace & Defense continues its long-standing commitment to U.S. manufacturing excellence, employee development, and defense readiness.
