Pryer Aerospace, a manufacturer of complex aerospace components and structural assemblies, broke ground Tuesday on a 60,000-square-foot expansion at its Claremore, Oklahoma, facility. The move will double the company's manufacturing space in Claremore.
Founded in 1965 and acquired by Argonaut Private Equity in 2025, Pryer supports aviation, defense and space flight programs through advanced structural assembly, precision machining, metal fabrication and other highly technical aerospace manufacturing capabilities. The company's customers include Blue Origin, Boeing, Textron, Gulfstream, Cessna, Nordam, Orizon and U.S. defense contractors.
The expansion will enhance support for existing aerospace customers and enable Pryer to diversify its customer base.
Oklahoma's aerospace and defense industry supports more than 206,000 jobs and $44 billion in annual statewide economic activity.
