This is Chris Redgrave for Zions Bank Speaking on Business.
How would you like to be one of the 200 employees working for the "leading provider of live fire training facilities" in the United States and abroad? Action Target, located in Utah County, has a 150,000 square foot manufacturing plant and office space, working with Utah's finest to make sure they have the best practice firing ranges with the goal of the people being prepared so they can return home safely. Besides the excellent ventilation systems and noise control, this company's firing ranges are designed to retrieve the bullets to be recycled as well.
After 25 years of working closely with local police departments, federal, state, FBI and our military, Action Target is designing top-of-the-line shooting for indoor or outdoor ranges. With the 50 patents they hold on the firing range systems, they send out range consultants to get an idea of their customers' needs.
In fact, this self-contained company does it all. They engineer, design, manufacture and install the highest quality range equipment for the best prices. Action Target is now certified to work globally, so they are in China, India, Europe, Southeast Asia, Brazil, the Philippines and the Middle East.
Action Target builds entire villages with buildings and shoot houses so our male and female soldiers can get real life training for live-fire engagements in close quarters. These facilities are designed by the Action Target team to have defensive positions, tunnels and rooftop entries to simulate urban combat. These employees feel that it's an honor to help prepare our soldiers with the best real-world training systems that they design, manufacture and install.
Action Target is committed to their customers and every year they sponsor the Advanced Law Enforcement Training Camp, where they bring the most current training available right here in Utah. These guys can then take that training home to their staff.
Action Target is another great example of why Utah has the most dynamic economy in the nation and is the only state to double our exports in five years.
For Zions Bank, I'm Chris Redgrave, speaking on business.
