EPA workforce set to double in the next 6 months

1 October 2026

EPA is looking to double its workforce within the next 6 months due the implementation of a significant growth plan. Work is already underway with Phase One adding 1200m2 of additional production space.

This will house 4 production lines for ammunition, calibres are 9mm, 5.56, 7.62 and 12.7, with one line allowing the flexibility to make different calibres. Total increased capacity will be 60 million rounds per annum.

This is a significant investment of over £5 million pounds and is expected to be completed January 2027.

The investment will create at least 30 new jobs, for more information, see our Jobs Page.
