DREAM MEETS DETERMINATION
Acclaim Aerospace & Defense is the result of years of sweat equity, hard work & determination to bring a dream to fruition.
Rebecca Premo has an extensive Fortune 500 corporate leadership background & later founded her own niche marketing company, which served manufacturer clients in growing their businesses & diversifying their customer base.
Jason Premo has a 20+ year history in the aerospace & defense CNC manufacturing sector, having previously co-owned Adex Machining Technologies in South Carolina. When Adex was sold in 2014, Jason worked in consulting & helped other manufacturing business owners with M&A, introducing Lean principles & attaining AS9100 certification.
When Jason & Rebecca married & talked about plans for the future, they set their sights on combining their talents & creating a company that exemplifies their vision, passion for the industry & sky-high standards.
The result is Acclaim Aerospace & Defense: a modern, efficient & innovative CNC machining center specializing in ultra-tight-tolerance swiss lathe products.
Rebecca & Jason intentionally located Acclaim in a Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone). These rural & urban areas are targeted by the Small Business Administration for incentives to bring industry to places where there are traditionally higher rates of poverty & fewer job opportunities.
It is part of the mission at Acclaim to support & grow the local economic infrastructure & provide opportunities for better-than-average wages in the area for its employees.
They believe that a rising tide raises all ships & that their willingness to invest in the area is an invitation & incentive for others to do the same.
Every purchase order from our customers is a vote for more economic opportunity in the community in which Acclaim operates.
AREA PARTNERSHIPS
