Marinette Marine Corporation was founded in 1942 along the Menominee River in Marinette, Wisconsin to meet America's growing demand for naval construction. From humble beginnings with a contract to build five wooden barges, MMC has grown into a world-class shipbuilder, having designed and built more than 1,500 vessels.  

The shipyard has expansive facilities including more than 300,000 square feet of climate controlled manufacturing space and 53,000 square feet of warehouse and receiving space.  MMC employs cutting-edge computer-controlled manufacturing equipment and has heavy-lift capabilities to meet the most demanding requirement.

MMC boasts some of the best engineering and naval architecture minds in the industry.  They’re backed by a skilled, safe and motivated workforce, and a management team keenly focused on quality.  The company is internationally recognized for innovative and highly efficient, modular, subassembly and assembly-line manufacturing techniques. This sophistication in construction methods has allowed Marinette to build some of the most technologically advanced vessels on the planet.

Marinette Marine’s performance on government contracts is impressive.  Its portfolio includes the U.S. Navy’s Littoral Combat Ship, the improved Navy Lighterage System, mine countermeasure vessels and ocean tugs, as well as U.S. Coast Guard icebreakers, buoy tenders and response vessels.  Because of its record of delivering ahead of schedule and within contracted costs, MMC has been designated as a Premier Supplier by the United States Navy.
