Daniel Defense, engineer and manufacturer of weapons systems, precision rail systems and accessories, announced plans for a five-year, $20 million expansion in Bryan County, Georgia.

“We are proud to be among the nation’s fastest growing private companies according to Inc. 500|5000 Magazine,” said President and CEO of Daniel Defense Marty Daniel.  “Maintaining the level of growth we’ve experienced over the last 10 years requires a long term vision, continued momentum, while maintaining the level of quality expected by our customers.”

At the conclusion of the 5-year, multi-million dollar expansion, Daniel Defense will have expanded to over 100,000 square feet of manufacturing and administrative space in Bryan County. “This is yet another step toward bringing every part of the manufacturing process in-house, which will in turn give us ultimate control over quality assurance,” said Daniel.

Daniel Defense moved its operations to Bryan County in 2009 with the opening of its now 47,000 square foot facility.  The long-term project would not be the first size increase for the Georgia-based company.  They expanded operations to a 90,000 square foot facility in Ridgeland, South Carolina, in 2012.
