CBC Global Ammunition Plans Pryor, Oklahoma, Manufacturing Operations

05/16/2025
Ammunition manufacturer CBC Global Ammunition plans to establish production operations in Pryor, Oklahoma. The $300 million project is expected to create 350 jobs.

The investment will include the construction of a manufacturing facility, located on more than 550 acres at MidAmerica Industrial Park, which will be capable of producing all centerfire cartridges, from 9mm up to 12.7mm.

“We are thrilled to bring our new manufacturing operations to Oklahoma,” said Fabio Mazzaro, President of CBC and board member of CBC Global Ammunition. “This facility will be a cornerstone for our future growth in the world’s most important market for small caliber ammunition. With in-house production of all components, propellant and critical energetic raw materials we envisage to build an industry-leading and fully vertically integrated company. We believe that the region’s supportive business environment makes Oklahoma an ideal location for CBC USA.”

The project is being supported by the Governor’s Quick Action Closing Fund. This incentive is performance-based, with funds distributed only after agreed-upon benchmarks are achieved.

“This is a perfect example of what can happen when we work together to benefit Oklahoma,” noted John Budd, Oklahoma Department of Commerce CEO. “Gov. Stitt, the Legislature, the Commerce team and all our partners have put in the work to create the ideal business environment for ammunition manufacturers like CBC to thrive. This win is huge for Oklahoma’s rapidly growing Aerospace and Defense industry, and I’m thankful for the work the MidAmerica team did to make this win possible.”

CBC is a producer of military and civilian ammunition for portable weapons and is a key supplier to the U.S. military and allied forces globally. The company also serves law enforcement and commercial markets. MagTech Ammunition Inc. acts as CBC’s master distributor in the U.S. for all brands within the group.

“MidAmerica Industrial Park has a long and storied history of supporting our nation’s defense, dating back to its origins as a munitions facility during World War II. Today, with CBC Global Ammunition’s investment, we are witnessing the next chapter in that legacy—one that positions MidAmerica as a key player in the future of ammunition manufacturing. This project not only reinforces our commitment to economic growth and job creation in Oklahoma but also underscores the strategic advantages MidAmerica offers to global manufacturers seeking to expand in the Nation’s heartland,” added MidAmerica Industrial Park CEO David Stewart. “We are proud to welcome CBC Global Ammunition and look forward to supporting their success in Oklahoma.”
