Epping, NH SIG SAUER, Inc. held a ceremonial groundbreaking celebration on May 7 at the site of the SIG SAUER Experience Center at 233 Exeter Rd. The celebration marks the beginning of construction of the SIG SAUER Experience Center, a two-story, 40,500 s/f facility of structural steel and load-bearing masonry with a structural steel roof with design-build services provided by North Branch Construction and Cowan Goudreau Architects. The facility will offer public access to a 6,000 s/f SIG SAUER flagship retail showroom, indoor shooting ranges, a high-tech interactive SIG SAUER Museum depicting the history of SIG SAUER and a one-of-a-kind educational experience for SIG SAUER products, a high-end lounge called “Legion Club,” a multi-purpose meeting space, conference rooms, and corporate office space.
